But what if you received such calls repeatedly for a year straight?
After understanding why it was happening, he took pettyrevengeand trolled a lawyer in the process.
Since he didnt know the tongue, he was even more confused.
It turned out that the lawyer had printed business cards and mistakenly put the wrong number in his contactinformation.
Since he was an immigration lawyer, it was no surprise that the calls were in aforeigntongue.
The lawyer asked if the OP (Original Poster) could redirect the people back to him.
However, he assured the OP that they would make an effort to correct the number on the cards.
For the following 6 months, the man received no calls.
But then, all of that changed and he started getting even more frequent calls per day.
Out of courtesy, the OP did his best to redirect the callers.
Of course, this didnt sit well with the man.
Suddenly, a great thought popped up on how to take petty revenge on the lawyer.
He noticed that you could register a number to win a free trip to Florida or Mexico.
So the OP decided to give the lawyers number.
He would enter the number into 5-15 contests per day.
The OP had received calls from the lawyers clients for about a year at that point.
He looked up the lawyer online and hed had his number changed.
Its great that the man managed to solve his predicament, but not everyone is that lucky.
