Been getting irritating crank calls tonight from some giggly girl(s) pretending to be a chinese dry cleaner. It’s hard to imagine that this is just a random thing since my number is not listed and they knew my name. So I suspect it might be someone I know, I just have no idea who. I don’t recognize the number, although it is local.
Is there a free way to do a reverse 411 on the number? I tried a couple of websites but they all refer me to pay services that charge $15 for a lookup.
If worst comes to worst, you can just have the number blocked. But I’m sure they’ll move on once they realize you’re not the easy prey they were told you were.
Or maybe they just want to hear your sultry British accent? In that case, I’d move.
Did anyone else used to crank call regularly? I did that shit all the time as a kid and, sadly I guess, up til I was about 18. My favorite was calling 2 random people using 3 way calling, they would start asking each other ‘Hello?’, ‘Hello?’, ‘Who is this?’, ‘WHO is this?’, ‘You called me!’, ‘No I didnt’, etc.
I did this all the time to people in my dorm when I was a freshmen and if the people knew each other sometimes they would just start chatting like one of them really had called the other one. It was hilarious to blurt out random things during their conversation.
I once got a crank answering machine message from some teenager who claimed I was the father of her child. I probably still have it online somewhere for your listening pleasure. To me, it was the most hilarious thing in the world, but I know some married guys who say they would have been in serious shit had that message been left on their machines.
