I hope you're starting to get the impression that errors are not as rare as you believed they were this morning. I know I have received all manner of erroneous debt collection calls (looking for relatives, looking for people I've never heard of, etc).

Obviously, it isn't.

If anyone deserves to have their phone bill crammed, it's people who say things like that. I had mine crammed when I was in college & couldn't/wouldn't pay the several hundred dollars in extra charges; it followed me around for years.
BTW, if anyone is a Sprint or Verizon customer since 2010 and has had their bill crammed, there has been a huge fine, & websites set up to pay restitution.
