Default Telephone calls

Don't you hate when somebody calls your mobile. They ask for nobody you know, then you ask what number they dialed and it's COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TO YOUR NUMBER!!!!

Somebody did that today. I asked them what number they dialled and they were completely off. Then I said to her "are you stupid? You're number is completely off".

Then she calls back and I pick up sounding really pissed off (as I was) and said "you are stupid aren't you" and she hung up.

I hate it. Stupid moron pranking idiots.

Anyone here have a similar story to share with uncle bobcat?

Some girl called a long time ago saying "i know everything about you. tee hee!" and she hangs up. I doubt this has anything to do with the subject though

My dad says he is always getting phone calls at work, from wrong calls. You even have to put in an area code and an extension to reach him, yet they still do it.

I used to prank call with my friend. I remember we based them around SNES games. "Oh, hey, how's the Black Omen look today?"

My house used to get called a lot by some East Indian wanting someone named "Kevin". We finally took the directions one day and then told him he's been dialing the wrong number. I felt sorry for him.

A woman left me a voice message that sounded like she was talking to a man she was having an affair with...the two 'S's were the giveaway (secretive, sexual). I found it humorous...

Oh and an old oriental woman phoned and asked me why I wasn't coming to work at some Chinese restaurant. I was like "what are you talking about?" and she said something like "I am want to speak to Sing Lou Zsang" and I was like O.o "wrong number..."

Some guy called our house and left a message that wasn't for us, but aside from that we could hardly make anything of it... It sounded like some hispanic guy, and he was muttering about something... It was funny... :>

A few months ago some guy called and was like...''my cows are in your garden'' Im like ''I dont have a garden'' and he was like ''and I dont have any cows, bitch!''

and then he hung up.

But if you prank calls and stuff funny, you should watch Crank Yankers on Comedy Central...its halarious.

Some weeks ago some company wanted to do one of those test thingies with me... what I thought of my school or something. They kept calling at the wrong time, so every time I told them to call back at a certain moment... and every time they were too late. They gave up after 4 or 5 tries

A few years ago we had a stalker... would just call up and say nothing. I still wonder who it was for, me or somebody else.
