She said the person's name. To which I replied no, that person isn't at this number.
I asked who she was....she said she was the county process server. Our county uses a private company
and they don't call before hand.
It sounds like she was representing them and sleuthing for someone.
Could be that they have lost track of someone, and somehow got info leading to your number.
Or the digits reversed or something of that sort.
Or sometimes ... people give their #, but with reversed digits, just so they can't be found. KWIM?

I hate it when I get a call for someone ....... that has no connection to me.
I'm the same as you and am very suspicious when something like this happens.
Worse ..... when they are calling for your husband, and he is dead ........
I tend not to give a straight answer about that either.
It's obvious they are up to no good, and need to know any further details to aid their ploy.
