That is *way* better than the problem we faced last year, which took many months of sleuthing to fix: our phone number had somehow gotten wires crossed with an honest to god escort service in Canada somewhere (we live in California, not even the right *country*). Don't ask me how, I don't know, and neither did the phone company when we eventually managed to track down the source of the real number. We would have several calls a week (some weeks several times a day) requesting to know whether specific hooker-sounding female names were "available" right now. And of course it took forever to get any information out of these clients as to who they were trying to call and how they got our number (at first we thought it was just wrong numbers, *eventually* we got enough information from the callers to piece together what was really happening).
Loads of fun, but not really the same, since the people calling *were* looking for a (I assume?) legitimate business in the location they were calling, and it wasn't at all their fault, nor the fault of the business in question, that it was being mistakenly redirected to our number. Was pretty hilarious, though. When I finally tracked down someone capable of fixing it at the phone company responsible for the mixup, he laughed for like a minute straight.
