How did they know my name? I called back, but the phone wasn't available?

Question

My dad picked up the phone.. I wasn't home, so i couldnt talk to them.. But he said she was asking for me, and she said my name? But I called back and the phone isn't available?

Answer 1

I'm assuming that because you live with your dad, you are probably a minor.  It could be from a place that you or your parents did business with.  It may be a survey place, or a telemarketing place.  When I worked for one of those phone survey places, we would sometimes call people up and ask for them by name.  Usually they were for businesses calling to check on customer service with their former customers.  

Just an idea!  Cheers!

Answer 2

Maybe they must of called by a cell phone, and they must of took the sim card out.
