Default "James, please confirm your appointment!"
got a text yesterday, and again this morning, from some doctor's office, looking to have James confirm his appointment tomorrow at 3pm.

tried replying to the text, nope, unmonitored line.

so today i called the number in the text, talked to a very nice lady, and told her there is no James at the number you are sending a text to.

"do you have James's last name?"

"no....i don't know who James is, you have the wrong number"

"what's your name, so I can find your chart?"

"i'm not a patient, you don't have a chart for me, just my phone number. apparently James has an appointment at 3pm tomorrow"

"oh! now i know who it is, but we don't have a number for him."

"neither do I, good luck"

I got an offer that said

Duane, we'd like to by your home at 12345 West north street

That's not my name and not where I live, but I invited them to come and see it just the same.

I've had a couple of those - I just go ahead and confirm then block the number after that.

When I was recovering from knee surgery ( a couple days after), I was sitting in the Suburban while Mary walked the dog at the local park.

My phone rings, I don't recognize so I let it go to voice mail.

The voice says the pick up spot for "little Johnie" has been moved to the other side of the building.

Since we're talking a kid, I texted back and explained it was a wrong number and that the number should be checked.

They texted back to thank me and found they had miss dialed.

Thought this might be about that nominee for BATF being withdrawn
