Today, I noticed that I get more calls from people who've dialed the wrong number than I do from people I actually know. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, at work, I had received a lot of phone calls. I thought maybe it was a scammer line because I never receive calls. Turns out my phone number is the same as a character's number in a TV show. FML
Today, I took a call. Wrong number. A few seconds later, they called back and I told her that she had the wrong number. She said she just hit redial and didn't understand how she got me again. I tried to explain how redial works. She called me a moron and hung up. Then my phone rang again. FML
Today, someone posted online a listing for a bicycle for sale, and accidentally put my phone number instead of their own. I have received more calls in one day than I have from friends and family in a week. FML
Today, I realized how lonely I am when someone called my number by mistake and I talked with them for 5 minutes. I don’t know who she was, but I'm so lonely I was happy to have someone engage in a conversation, even if it was about her calling the wrong number. FML
Today, I've gotten the most calls of my life. Turns out the idiot who changed the sign on my local Pizza Hut put up the wrong phone number. My phone number. I've already received 16 calls. FML
Today, I had a hour long conversation with someone I apparently was friends with a few years ago. I couldn't remember who he was for the life of me, so I just played along. Finally, I told him I didn't remember him. He had the wrong number. I had a long conversation with a wrong number. FML
Today, after being unemployed for over four months, I got a call from a company I've wanted to work for for over 2 years. After they were about to set up an interview, they called me by a different name. After correcting them, they hung up on me. Turns out they had the wrong number. FML
Today, I needed to call my mom to get some info so I dialled the number on my work phone. Not 2 seconds after, my cellphone rang. I got super pissed off because I hate when people call me on my cell at work. It was me. I'd dialled my own number. FML
Today, I got a call from the guy I have been seeing. I wasn't him. It was his wife wondering why I have her husband's number. FML

I remember having my first cell phone and a dozen strange people called me. It turned out the number once belonged to a roofing contractor and he suddenly vanished out of the blue and they wanted their money back. The company who gave him his phone number reused it and gave it me when I signed up with the same company. They don't do that anymore but that could have happened to OP.

story of my life last year, 80% of all phone calls I got were for Lisa Wolfe. I don't know, nor have I ever known a Lisa Wolfe. 19% out of the other 20% were from my mom. I used to impress people because whenever my phone rang before I even looked at it I would say "watch its a wrong number for some lady named Lisa Wolfe." and answer it on speakerphone. I convinced one girl I was psychic doing this. unfortunately, she was creeped out by psychics.
