Hey everyone, this early morning something weird happened… Our house telephone rang, but because I was still laying in bed and didn’t feel like picking up, I let it go to voicemail… When I listened to it afterwards it was an elderly woman who claimed she just… wanted to talk…? Here’s a transcript of the voicemail: CHDE “Mini Telefon nummere ish null-sechse-füfzig […] Ich due gärn mit de Mensche Gedanke und idee ustuusche wo ___ zeiged, dass mir hoffnig chönnt ha. _________? (Weiss nid ganz was sie dert gseit hett, viellicht “und dass epper für üs luegt” oder “und dass mer füre lueged) ________ uf de welt. Würd mi gern ____ mit ihne unterhalte, guete tag wünsch ich.” EN “My telephone number is 056- […] I like talking to people and sharing thoughts and ideas that show ___, that we can have hope. ________? (Not sure what she said here… Maybe “and that someone is looking out for us” or “and that we can look forward”). ____ in the world. I’d like to ____ talk to you, wishing you a good day.” To verify, I looked the number up online, which allowed me to find most of her contact info and do a quick search on GoogleEarth. She lives two villages further east from me in a normal house and has a huge, well maintained garden with lots of plants and flowers. (Mentioning that because it supports my theory of her perhaps being a bored (maybe lonely) pensioner who has enough time for that 😅) Anyways here’s the thing: I love talking to people, too. I like having penpals and talking to random people. So, I’d love to give her a call back BUT I’m not sure if that’s perhaps a bad idea? Have you heard of any sort of scam like that? What could her intentions be? Could she be a preacher of some sort? Maybe a member of Jehovas witnesses? Maybe even record my voice and use it to try and scam my family? 😧 Has this happened to you before? Please let me know your thoughts and have a nice day :) submitted by /u/bluuemoonbae
