Do you ever get misdirected messages? I get them all the time. I've got some collections office after a woman named Pat, who must have given them my number, and I get doctor's office calls all the time. I try to be nice and call them back to say they have the wrong number (the collections one doesn't believe me).

My parents' number is apparently one digit off a travel agency's promotional number and mailers go out with misprints all the time. People are always calling my parents demanding free cruises.

I also get weird texts. I think they're spam but they can't be very effective spam because I don't know what the hell they're talking about.

Occasionally I get calls for other people. I just say "well I hope Mrs. Diana didn't need to know this information anytime soon" and delete them.

I like getting the text message that was sent to the wrong person, especially when it's about you.

I have some woman who has been texting me thinking that I'm someone named Declan or some shit like that. I was fucking with her the other day and going along with it telling her I was in some sort of car accident and freaked her out.

I got a picture from some girl with her tongue on her areola. It was supposed to go to her husband. I would have followed up with it but it wasn't all that great.

Hey Kitsa, I think you could convince tham with maybe a photocopy of your I.D. and maybe a phone bill. I don't know if you'll have to show them something relating your SS to you, but you might since collections dodging seems like it would be a pretty common thing. Check out their web site and see if they have a FAQ with something like that in it. IDK, maybe Pat deserves it or something.

The Driver I.D. number isn't more than just a track record, isn't it?

P.S. Maybe you should tell them that you're just another "Pat"!
