    Happened to me. Lost my phone at a party. Someone called it to help me find it.

    Next day I see I have a missed call from a number I don’t recognize. The strange thing is that they called me in the middle of the night. Is it a spam call? Who calls me in the middle of the night???

    Took a while to connect the dots.

      Years ago when I was living with my parents, my mother was at work, I worked nights. She called me during the day and this was the conversation :

      Mom: I need a favor, go into my bedroom, get my cell phone and bring it to me.

      Me : you are are work right?

      Mom: yeah

      Me: you can’t make personal calls at work so you must be on break right?

      Mom: what? Just bring me my phone!

      Me: if you are on break, how are you calling me?

      Mom: oh shit, nevermind I found it.
