Posted June 9, 2022 I had an experience today that I have never had before. I have been texting back and forth for the last few days with a friend. She suggested that she would like to rear my voice and asked me to call at a specific time. I agreed, and at the appointed time, I called the very same number I had been texting for several days. After ringing several times, a voice message told me to announce my name and Google voice would try to connect me. OK, folks use Google voice for discretion. After several rings, a very unexpected voice asked me to leave a message, Instead, figured I would just call back in a few. I hung up, and no sooner laid my phone down, I was getting a call. Figured it was my friend, calling back. I looked at caller I.D. and it said that the call was from Ohio. I answered and the male voice said, "I see I just missed your call can I help you"? My friend had a California area code. I don't believe in coincidences, but my friend insists that they don't use Google voice. Has anybody had this happen?? Am I being paranoid, or is my friend B.S, ing me???? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know what happened with you but maybe it's a software or something else to make prank with you, or maybe your friend is in trouble so you should take it serious. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 9, 2022 I think I would text her and tell her what happened and see if she has as explaination. In the old days lines used to get crossed. Then ask her if she would call you. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If your friend has changed her phone number since establishing her profile on the site you were chatting on and she has not updated her profile when you click the "call" button you call whoever now has her OLD number. Might not be what happened, but would explain a lot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
