I've done the Grandma thing too. Nice convo. She sounded exactly like her...same laugh, mannerisms, etc. She even had a grandson my age who was in the same grade. It was weird, but nice. Hope she's well.
Lol, this brings back memories. I was in my early 30's and a woman calls and asks for my mom. I said she has the wrong number, and she chewed me for refusing to put my mom on, so I hung up. She called back still mad saying they needed my mom to come into work that day . I hung up again. She called back and still wouldn't believe I wasn't her employees step-daughter. I hope the woman was fired so she could escape from that place, can't imagine what working with a dimwit boss like that would be like. And I've had some dimwit bosses over the years too...
There was a woman who told me that she was going to take me to court for stealing her car, but I am a 17 year old Junior student that has absolutely no intentions of stealing anybody's car. When I told her who I actually was, she became extremely silent, and then she hung up.
Best prank ever played on me. Fake tinder accountant in Louisiana, with a half naked model and my phone number. I came out of shower to 5 missed calls and 40 text messages
I got a wrong number text. Some lady named Miya Sanashi was asking me (well, she was looking for a Mr. Singh) about some important account info/delivery thing. I wasn't sure how to respond at first, so I then decided to just play along with the prank. I kept acting like I was Mr. Singh until she asked for some special clearance stuff. At that point, I stopped, not wanting to get into any trouble, so I said that she was texting the wrong number. It ended there. On the flip side, during a summer workshop, my friend and I got locked out of a building. I texted the number our teacher left to alert him that we couldn't get inside, and I was left on read. I don't think that professor was that good at technology, but I wasn't sure regardless. We were later let in after my friend texted some other classmates. In the meantime, as it turned out, I accidentally messaged my friend and he had no idea how to respond.
Someone launched full into a huge tirrade at me about a couch or something. I could only gather that the person they thought I was, was supposed to get it within like an hour of their first call and they misdialed me both times, getting screened as spam for the first one, and getting me the second time. I just kept repeating "I think you have the wrong number" while they shouted "no I don't" until they calmed down enough for their brain to catch up. It was really funny because their tone instantly chanced from raging mad, to incredibly embarrassed
We've had this number (land-line) for over 10 years and there are three numbers that still get mixed up with ours. The first belongs to a restaurant, people often call for delivery. The second belongs to a pharmacy, we sometimes get calls in the middle of the night to check if it's open for night duty. And the last is an old lady who ALWAYS asks for a woman , when I asked her about it once, she said she was illiterate and makes calls by copying the numbers written on her wall and apparently she keeps flipping the last two numbers of her daughter. Ours is 8080 her daughter's 0808.
I got a voicemail from a sister to her younger brother about 'you have to stop pooping on the floor its not funny anymore' and i really didn't know what to do
Damn I wish I could've talked about my stories: here are the 2 things that happened to me 1: About a year ago I finally got around to getting a cellphone number, I kid you not starting from 3 days after I get my number assigned, I got calls from a courthouse in Ontario talking about "a case I was supposed to attend" and "unpaid taxes" (note, I live in Quebec) 2: have been getting people calling me about once every 2 months telling me that I apparently just called them but it was silent so they called back... (this one is really fucking with me, idk if someone is duplicating my number or if people are making the same mistake once every 2 months)
Mine is that I have to have a prescription from my local boots (a medicine shop.) Every couple of weeks I get a text message from them saying: Dear Darren, you prescription is now ready to collect at your local Boots shop. I laugh every time I see it, I’m just wondering if Darren has their medicine or not 😂
My old home phone number (ported to my cell phone some 20 years ago) had the same 10 digits as a Chinese restaurant. So at the peak, I would get roughly 4 wrong numbers per week looking for that particular restaurant. And they weren't just local. Often I would get calls from the Bronx from a supplier looking for that restaurant. Got some great personal reviews over the years. Calls have pretty much stopped since the restaurant moved to another town about 1 1/2 years ago and changed numbers. Oh, and the silliest one I got was when someone called my number and left his entire order on my voicemail. Like, you don't pay attention to the voice mail greeting?
Someone I know got an old number for a guy who had like a million friends, some of whom refused to believe it wasn't his anymore so this guy I know eventually gave up and has just been going along with it when they don't explicitly reference the guy's name. It's had some funny results and this random guy's random antics have become group legend.
I received a call It was from this random number and I was in school and It was our break and this number phoned me and then My friend said I bet 15 bucks that IT'S A scammer So I Awnsered it This Boy Screams down the phone at me "DID U LOCK THE BACKDOOR!? I THINK (Insert a female name) PUT THE KEYS IN THE COFFEE MAKER, OR MAYBE IT WAS THE MICROWAVE I DONT KNOW BUT....Oh that's a nice Wall" I cant contain my laugh and just blurt out "Try turning on the microwave if it Explodes then theres your keys" The boy screams at me again"OH IM SORRY WRONG NUMBER, THE WALL MUSTVE CALLED YOU OR MAYBE IT WAS THE CEILING" The he hung up I go to my next class I'm crying of laughter up the back of the class And the boy next to me asks"You good" So I explain the story then say that I think he was High on something The boy just looks away And says "I think that was me" I was crying for 10 minutes straight after that
This happened when I was in high school. Phone rings. Mom answers. Mom: Yeah hold on a moment. Hands me phone Me: (confused as hell) Hello? Other person: (silence then) Is ___ there? Me: Hi (even more confused now) Other person: ( silence ) is ____ there? Me: (annoyed now) This is _____. Other person: Sorry! The ____ I'm looking for is a boy. Me: (amused now) I think you have the wrong number. Other person: Sorry! (Hangs up) The dangers of having not only a unisex(nickname) but also common name.
One day I had a random girl sending me nude selfies. I was like what the hell. So I texted the girl back and told her I didn't who she was and who she was trying to contact. She was mortified, but found out that she had gotten a guys number wrong by one number. I may still have the pics...
it takes up to 20 seconds for it to sink in for scammers, telemarketers/robo-dialers and wrong numbers, so i have a long, country bumpkin, drawn out anwering machine message. "Hey, this our telephone answering deeevice! if you don't know who i am, or i have no ideee-uh who you are, Hang Up. all you kinfolk, friends and neighbors leave us a message! y'all have a niiiice day, and thank your for the call. bye-bye now!" 30 seconds of excruciating cornpone. half the family detests it, half absolutely love it. try it, it works, and it'll give you 10 years of Good Luck!
Ok.. one time I changed my number so all my friends who didn’t have the new one would text the old one and get really weird/funny/cryptic answers.. I thought it was some weird teenager (like I was at the time) so I texted it apologizing and to refer the people to my new number.. long story short guy is 50, just got outta prison for 30 years for “a drug deal gone wrong” resulting in muder.. wanted to date me. (I was 14) Found my high school, went there.. got a no contact order and I had to change my number 4 times till he tracked down this weird kid from Facebook who gave him my new number.. so make that 5 times 🤗 I’m 23 and havnt hears from him since.. crazy times. Oh ya now he works for mr cool ice cream last time I heard.
This is kinda the opposite of the question but one time I went to send that video of a pufferfish eating a carrot to my friend but accidentally sent it to her old number. After the other person asked who was texting them, I panicked and blocked the number lol
I've done the Grandma thing too. Nice convo. She sounded exactly like her...same laugh, mannerisms, etc. She even had a grandson my age who was in the same grade. It was weird, but nice. Hope she's well.

A turtle approves of these "sorry wrong number stories"
Caller, "Sorry, wrong number".
Me, "It's ok, the phone was ringing anyway".

The heartbreaking one where the girl had texted her deceased boyfriend's old number made me cry.

I received a call
It was from this random number and I was in school and It was our break and this number phoned me and then My friend said I bet 15 bucks that IT'S A scammer
So I Awnsered it
This Boy Screams down the phone at me
"DID U LOCK THE BACKDOOR!? I THINK (Insert a female name) PUT THE KEYS IN THE COFFEE MAKER, OR MAYBE IT WAS THE MICROWAVE I DONT KNOW BUT....Oh that's a nice Wall"
I cant contain my laugh and just blurt out "Try turning on the microwave if it Explodes then theres your keys"
The boy screams at me again"OH IM SORRY WRONG NUMBER, THE WALL MUSTVE CALLED YOU OR MAYBE IT WAS THE CEILING"
The he hung up
I go to my next class
I'm crying of laughter up the back of the class And the boy next to me asks"You good"
So I explain the story then say that I think he was High on something
The boy just looks away
And says "I think that was me"
I was crying for 10 minutes straight after that
This happened when I was in high school.
Phone rings. Mom answers.
Mom: Yeah hold on a moment.
Hands me phone

Other person: (silence then) Is ___ there?
Me: Hi (even more confused now)
Other person: ( silence ) is ____ there?
Me: (annoyed now) This is _____.
Other person: Sorry! The ____ I'm looking for is a boy.
Me: (amused now) I think you have the wrong number.
Other person: Sorry! (Hangs up)
The dangers of having not only a unisex(nickname) but also common name.
One time, I had answered the phone and a person asked to talk to a guy named Peter. The person had the wrong number. ☎️📞
At my last number, for eight years I got calls for Christina Moorehouse
One day I had a random girl sending me nude selfies. I was like what the hell. So I texted the girl back and told her I didn't who she was and who she was trying to contact. She was mortified, but found out that she had gotten a guys number wrong by one number. I may still have the pics...
I got a call to reschedule my Brazilian 😳😬. Let's just say.....it never got rescheduled lol. HELL NO would I ever get one of those!!
