I just got off a very strange call. Apparently, a complete stranger received a FaceTime request from me. “Butt Dial” right? no big deal. Not this time. At the time, i was in the middle of a FaceTime call with my dad. I am almost certain I know exactly when it happened because i noticed a call-waiting style interruption on our call. The first strange thing i noticed was that the incoming caller was my dad. The same dad, I was presently talking to. I rejected the call, thinking it was my dad accidentally calling from a different device. Then, moments later I get a mobile call from another LA number. This time from an irate husband demanding to know why I would FaceTime his wife. Unfortunately, I may have given them the wrong impression by asking questions of them. The IT guy inside me wanted to figure out what just happened. Needless to say, they didn’t enjoy being grilled. I barely had time to get out a few apologies, i don’t think they even realized that I hadn’t actually even called them. I did get some answers. They were not on a call at the time. They were not even on the device. My call history shows no outgoing calls save my dad. my dad’s history doesn’t show the missed call on my history from him. I am almost certain I will never know what actually happened. I am guessing that Apple FaceTime system might be a bit more duct tape and spit then we were lead to believe.
Apple…. pffft
