My phone number is the same as the tech support number for a crappy dashcam company - except the last two digits are transposed.
I get a few calls and texts each month for them.
When I’m in a good mood I copy and paste a helpful response telling them the issue. When I’m annoyed, I just block the person.

My old land line was almost the same number as an entertainment venue whose number spelled TICKETS. People would sometimes dial 1 instead of 4 (corresponding to the letter I), and get me. Usually on weekend mornings, grr, but fortunately it didn’t happen too often.
