Gettin' Weirder....

Now this is weird....For a little while now we keep getting phone calls with the caller ID saying 'toll free' and it's an 866 number so I don't bother answering it. But they keep calling...sometimes 3 times a day. So finally I get disgusted and I pick the damn phone up and say "HELLO!!!!", and some guy asks for a Cheryl..just "Is Cheryl there?", and I tell him 'no you have the wrong number', and I hang up. So that should be that....but today the phone starts ringing and it's the same freakin' number calling. So I answer it again. Some chick asks again if Cheryl is there. Then I get mad, and I tell her NO and that I am sick of them calling me umpteen times a day. She tells me that my number was given to them as a reference. So I asked her what name does she have....and she says Cheryl THOMAS.....that's the same last name as this mess we just got straightened around with DTE!! So I told her that we already had a mess with a Thomas person that we are just now straightening out and we don't know anybody named Thomas. So she said she would remove our number. So they shouldn't be calling back anymore...

BUT what is it with this THOMAS person???.....So now people have OUR phone number looking for his wife or something????

Personally, I think it is a setup scam from DTE trying to see if he really lives at our phone number....trying to see if we are just scamming them or something trying to get out of paying their bill.....BUT they said Cheryl not the guy's name...so who is Cheryl??...maybe his wife? I mean, if they were trying to trick us into admitting that he lives here, then why didn't they just use HIS name and not some woman's name??

Too weird.....
