Still Looking for Milehannah Perry

The phone rings and I hear a recorded call to hang on for an "important message for Milehannah Perry".

I already know what this call is about because about every 4-5 months I get a similar call. Instead of ignoring this call, I hold on for a real person to come on the line.

Caller: Is this Milehan? (Even they can't pronounce the name)
Me: Nope and I DO NOT KNOW WHO THIS PERSON IS! Take me off your call list.

Caller: Well Milliehan listed this address and phone number as his residence.
Me: So what. If I was going to pass a bad check, do you think I'd use my real address?

Caller: So it's just some big coincidence that someone with the same last name as yours also lists the same address and phone number?
Me: Not at all. My name AND address are in the local public phone book. Go ahead and look it up for yourself. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this one out.

Caller: Ok, we'll take you off the list.
(hang up)

So Milehannah, I hope what ever that $300 you got by passing a bad check was worth it. They are still looking for you and until they get tired of calling ME, I'll keep your name fresh in the internet search engines.
