The past 4 days this guy has called my phone 5 times. He will either say right away he has the wrong number, or he will talk like he knows me and then realize he has the wrong number. Today my phone was in my truck and when I got to it I had a missed call. I called the number and it was the same guy. He laughed a little and said he must have dailed the wrong number again and that he was sorry. Well just now my phone starts ringing, with a different number. Its him.

Whats weird was the first two calls came up as Mobil, AL calls... And now they are Houston, TX calls. Every single call comes up with a different number.

I decided not to answer the last call because I knew it would have been him and I would have went off on him because im getting pretty pissed off.

I thought maybe all the different numbers were coming from him using calling cards, but when I call the numbers back he picks up. He knows he keeps calling me, but why does he keep doing it? I havent given out my number to anyone, so I dont know who it could be.

If you have a male friend or relative close by just have them answer the phone in a deep HELLO when answering - when it looks to be the "stalker" as we shall call him.

This should detour him from calling back blatenly, like it seems he is doing.
Good Luck!!

Sounds to me like you have a stalker!!! Call ATT and let them know about...and then i'd call the cops!!!!

The second time it happened, I called the number back not thinking it was the same person because of the different number and a girl answered. She seemed kinda pissed a girl was calling and then gave him the phone and he kinda laughed it off saying he had the wrong number again.

Sorry this is happening to you.

Im wondering if he met a girl out somewhere and she made up a number and it happened to be mine. I really dont know where he got my number from. He keeps saying his number is like mine and miss dials it, but come on, 5 times?

Unfortunately AT&T is closed right now. After I got the first call of the day I tried calling them. Ill have to call tomorrow.

That's must be really frustrating!!!!

If I don't recognize the number when someone calls I don't answer. If it's that important, they can leave a message.

Especially if it's a bill collector!

Very strange....is your mobile number new?? If so, carriers do reuse old numbers... I don't think att can do anything about this since wireless carriers are unable to block individual numbers.

natalie · 09-10-2007, 01:11 AM

I will be calling AT&T tomorrow with the numbers. The thing is that guy doesnt have a Louisiana accent. When someones from Louisiana, you can kinda tell.. lol

But for now, till the issue is resolved, I will have my .45 by my side.
