I don't know if these were pranks or were just a case of mistaken identity.

Last year, at about 4am, I got woken up by a call on my cell phone. It sounded like there were a group of guys on the other line. They were trying to get me to go over. I kept asking who they were and how they got my number. They were like "It's Seth and Eamon from Beta. We met at the Darkhorse the other night and you gave us your number." And I'm like "I don't know anyone from Beta. I haven't been to the Darkhorse in over a year. And I never give my phone number out." They kept trying to talk me into going over to their house. I was like "I don't know who you guys are. I think you have the wrong person. Sorry boys, but it's late and I'm going back to bed." The whole thing was pretty funny and amusing, except for the fact that I have no idea how they got my name and number...unless they looked it up in the Greek directory and made up the story about meeting me at the Darkhorse.

Two days ago, I got a facebook friend request from this guy from Pittsburgh named Kip (he looked to be about my age) and a facebook message that went something like "Hey Amy, this is Kip ___ from the VFW in Monroeville. You submitted an application but you didn't put your phone number. Please call me or Alex ____ at (phone number). Also, please be my friend." WTF?? First of all, I never applied to anyplace in Monroeville. Secondly, if this was for real, why the friend request...it seems unprofessional if this was for real. If they really needed to contact me, why didn't they look up my email on the supposed application I submitted or looked up my PSU email address (since they knew my name and my school)
