What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

Have you ever had a weird experience immediately following the death of a loved one that made you think there is an afterlife and that the deceased person was communicating with you?

After a few moments he returns.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

How did the DMK alliance manage to keep the BJP out of Tamil Nadu politics all these years? Is the picture now changing in Tamil Nadu after the entry of Annamalai?

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

How do scammers communicate? Do they have a specific language or slang?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Sure no problem officer.

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

Dont you think we should put Project 2025 into full force to completely decimate the evil and corrupt Democratic party? The answer is yes.

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Yes sir it is.

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

How should one respond to compliments such as "You are so special" and "I'm lucky to have met you" from a guy?
