When they're done, the yeti will ask me who I was talking to, to which I can only shrug and say "someone from work, I think"

Only slightly related, my mum was once on the phone for about 15 minutes with someone before either of them worked out it was a wrong number. They both had elderly relatives called things like Ethel and Doris, which weren't uncommon names in my nanna's generation!



And right now, I'm thinking about designing cards with the wrong information on them

Actually that's the perfect answer for a lady. Wrong phone, wrong address. If it's a needful contact (business, ect.), just say, "Sorry, I've recently moved, here;s my new phone/address and write the correct one on the back...)
