Fri 7 April 2006 - Seeking Peter
Someone from a finance company in Sydney kept ringing for a Peter somebody, leaving messages on my answering machine. Despite me ringing back and leaving messages on theirs saying there was no Peter here, every few weeks there’d be another call. The last about a week ago sounded… well, a little ominous.
Excerpt from answering machine message (MP3, 96Kb)
I made the extra effort to ring back during business hours and I think the guy believed me when I told him I wasn’t Peter, Peter didn’t live at my phone number, I’d had the number since October, and the phone company had told me the number had been last used five years before that.
Later that same day, a lady from Mornington Peninsula Shire rang up for Peter as well. (Or was it someone else from the finance company, double-checking?) I rang the lady back and told the story again, and nobody’s rung since.
Peter, wherever you are, watch out.
