was gonna rant about some r-slur but I think he was trying to scam me lol

So I was driving and some random number called

hi X (formerly chiobu) I changed my number, reach me here if you need anything

ok who this

omg cant you recognise the voice??

I'm driving and you're on speaker so not really. Who are you?

uhm I'm the slightly chubby guy who used to joke with you

(that really narrows it down, r-slur) sorry I can't tell I'm driving in peak hour traffic can you just tell me?

omg can't you tell? That slightly chubby guy who joked with you?

text me instead

He didn't text me and upon further pondering I think he was trying to do some cold reading bullshit to make me say a name before going on some scammy shit? He was really emphasising on the slightly chubby part about himself so that could be like anyone lol

Or do I really have an r-slured friend who doesn't matter to me and I couldn't recognise his voice who hadn't reached out to me in years suddenly calling me about changing his number I'm very sure people just broadcast to their friends on whatever messaging app if that's the case nowadays

Come to think of it an acquaintance who was getting sextorted and had to change his number informed us of the number change via text and not this phone call shit

I guess be careful of scamming idiots or cut ties with friends who are actually so annoying that they don't want to tell you who they are
