I'm Not Who You Thought I Was!
I was talking with a friend at dinner, and somehow the subject of wrong numbers came up.  Because of people calling my cell phone in the past, I changed my voicemail to say "if you are trying to reach someone else, you have the wrong number, please hang up and dial again."  It works.  But before that, I had many people calling me thinking I was someone else who had the number before me.  I changed my voicemail after I got a call for a Robert Parker about a bill from Shaw's jewelers.  It's not the best one though.  My question to all you Qers is this, we've all had someone call us and have the wrong number, but what is the funniest wrong number call you've ever received?

The funniest call I ever got was my freshman year of college when I still had my first cell phone.  I got a call from a number I didn't recognize, but decided I'd answer it...
"Are you Bryan Kramer?"
"Yes."
"Are you a carpenter?"
"Umm, no."

After I hung up, I decided to find out where this call came from.  Upon further review, I found the number to be from a convent in Waukesha, WI.  That was the all-time best, and I can never forget the day I got a call from Sister Mary Wrong Number.

I got a call from a restricted number so I didn't answer it, the person left a voicemail. It was a woman and she explained that she found my number on a pizza box that her husband brought home and she called because she thought he was cheating on her. I didn't return the call. LOL!

Wow.  Talk about getting a wrong number.  about 15 years back, we kept getting a wrong number.  Only thing, this was a fax.  We would get home, and our answering machine was filled with fax attempts.  There would be several attempts as the fax machine would redial the number, and of course get our machine.    Every so often, there was a lady who called with an asian sounding accent, trying to get whoever she was faxing to pick up the phone.  I believe it was a call from New York (we are in San Diego).  Unfortunately, at the time, money was very tight, so I wasn't going to call her back long distance just to tell her she had a wrong number.

This lasted several weeks before she called when we were home to pick up.  Took several tries to convince her that she had the incorrect number.

I remember a few yrs ago someone rang me from Warragul & he started talking about all this stuff he had done lately & gone "Remember we did this & that & it was funny" & I went with the flow for a few minutes, but twigged it was the wrong number.

Then he said "Are you such-and-such (I cant remember the name) from Tyers?"
Me: "No, I live in Glengarry, why?"
Him: "Oh s**t, sorry mate, I didn't realise I had the wrong number!"

Then he hung up. But it was totally random & funny as all hell.

Wrong numbers? The ones looking for my no good ex-son in law because he's running from bill collectors.

Other than that, the elderly lady that called because she wanted to get on the meal list for the senior center. I told her she had the wrong number. Then she called around 12:30 pm telling me her meal had not arrived. She cussed at me! After looking into it, I realized the senior center's phone number was 1 digit off from mine. I desperately wanted to fix her a meal and deliver it but decided not to.

I had a phone number, when I lived in Georgia,  that was listed in some phone book as the offices to the Floyd County Government.  At the time I lived in Cobb county and I didn't even know WHERE Floyd county was (I do now).  Anyway, we were always getting calls from people, but usually they only called once.  ONE time though, this lady called at like 5 in the morning and I answered and she went off about her boyfriend was in jail and she needed to know how to get him out.  She was hysterical.  I, on the other hand, was just snobby and ticked at having been woken up.  I told her she had the wrong number and she wanted to argue with me.  "Whatchu mean this aint the Floyd County Gub'mint?!?!"  I yelled "I don't even know where that is!!!  If your boyfrined is in jail, he's a loser!!  Leave him there!"  So, I hung up.  2 minutes later the phone rang AGAIN!!!!  I answered it with my teeth clenched and it was actually the operator, with the lady on the other line.  I unplugged the phone after telling her I was in a private residence.  Grrr.

I used to get voicemails on a weekly basis from some elderly woman that thought I was her son (mind you, I actually SPEAK on my message and say my name in full ... and no, I don't have Bea Arthur man-voice).  She'd call to thank me for the lovely Mother's Day flowers, tell me about Angel, her maintenance man who fixed her phone, complain about the $5 watch she bought that's now broken, etc.  I mean, literally about 8-10 messages over the course of a few months.  I tried calling her back to tell her that I wasn't her beloved son, but she never answered when I called and had no voicemail.

I'm assuming her son EVENTUALLY called her and caught on as to why he never received these messages (hmmmm, maybe she's NOT senile after all ... she really IS calling and leaving messages).

Same thing used happened at my house.  People would call asking for Kuhn's grocery store, we'd always tell them they had the wrong number.  One day I finally decided to look in the phone book for the number of the 2 Kuhn's stores that were closest to my house, and one of them was one digit off.

I had some b**** call me at midnight one night asking why I was having an affair with her fiancee. I asked her what she was talking about and who she was and who he was. She gave his name and I said I didn't know him. Then she described his car and said we were at the pool hall "shooting pool" and hanging out in his "pick up truck". I informed her I never went to the "pool hall" or have ever been in a "pick up truck" and she finally realized I was the wrong person and apologized but not until she called me about 5 times in a row that night ending at 12:45 a.m.

I got a weird sense of humor at times. Especially after many beers. I have a bad habit of telling people that the person they are looking for is dead. The silence on the other end makes me laugh so hard! Then they will ask who I am and I say Sheriff Woody Chipper. Then I ask them how they new the victim and to hang on while I write their information down. The reactions I've gotten I should record. When I cant hold it in anymore I start laughing and tell them they have the wrong number and hang up. 9 out of ten time they call back. Of course I dont answer. But I am sensitive to old ladies, I tell them that the person they are looking for is taking a dump! One old lady said to make sure i tell her daughter to spray when she was done because she has an unpleasant odor!!! I about died!!!

The funniest wrong call I received had to be right after I bought my Chevy truck with the new OnStar. I was driving down the road listening to the radio and the "radio" started ringing. Scared the sh*t out of me. After fumbling with the mirror to figure out to answer the damn thing a woman was on the other end and started raising He!! thinking I was her husband. She ranted for about 3 minutes about some affair he was having and I was cracking up which was making her madder. When she finally paused to take a breathe I told her she had a wrong # and I had no idea what number she had dialed cuz she called my "truck" ???  I laughed the whole way home. Wonder if she ever found her husband?

Well it wasnt so much a funny wrong number... but it p!ssed me off:

ok.  this person calls me stating I called her!   WTF.  I didnt even know the number because it was a private number.
I proceeded to tell the caller this and she gets mad at me and says to stop calling her.  

So I hung up.  I am not going to waste my minutes on that crap.  So what happens the B!#CH calls back again, cussing me out for hanging up on her..  I told her not to call my number anymore.  And I hung up again.   The reason I answered the call ( I know you are asking yourself this) is because I was expecting a call and I knew it was set to private.  So when she called back to cuss me out again, I told her if she called again I was going to come through the phone and beat the crap out of her...

She didnt call back. 

I hate people who are beyond stupid.  UGH
