That number is one of our numbers. Caller: I don't know who you think you are but I never called. ME: Sir I think it's best that we hang up now. I think you may need to get some rest.

Originally Posted By MissCandice Weirdly enough, our phones at work will connect 2 employees to another, and it will come in to both lines as an incoming call. I was sitting at work the other day and an incoming call came in and it was someone on the other side of the cubicle from me, somehow we were connected. I told her we could talk anytime and told her to stop calling me at work, lol.
Originally Posted By DAR <<they were generated by you calling them but with similar content, do you think you could have been set up by someone?>> No I was logged into our phone queue at the time. I have caller id on the phone. If it comes in for my personal line it'll indicate the phone number. If it comes in from the queue the number won't pop up, but it'll say the department name. This call was the latter of the two.
Originally Posted By bloona I thought this was a topic where you were asking what phone calls we had had today...lol... that is weird. We have a service here in the UK, I presume you do too, where if you ring someone and theyre already using their phone, you can press a number, and when they hang up, your phone will ring.(at the same time as theirs) It couldnt have been like that could it?

Your number keeps coming up on my caller ID. I don't know who you are. ME: This is California Children Services. I've been trying to call the parents of so and so. Are you the parent of so and so? Caller: No. Please stop calling me. ME: What number are you calling from? Caller: 123-456-7892. ME: That is not the number I've been calling. I have not been trying to call you. Caller: Yes you have. Your number keeps coming up on my caller ID. ME: What number does your caller ID say? Caller: 538-7988 ME: That's not my phone number. Telephone calls originating from the county go through a trunk line. Unfortunately, I can't tell who has been calling you. It doesn't matter what number a county employee is calling from, a different number shows on the caller ID. Caller: Stop calling me. (Hangs up).
