Romance Scam Story

Hi everyone, I’m hoping this is the right place to ask about something weird that happened today. My husband received two calls from an unknown number while we were driving together. He answered the second one on speakerphone, and it was a woman who named herself Caroline. The call went like this: Woman: Hi (husband’s name), this is Caroline, do you remember me? Husband: No, who is this? Woman: It’s Caroline! Don’t you remember me? You gave me your number a few years ago at a bar and said I could call you whenever I wanted to. Husband: Sorry, I think you have the wrong number. Woman: But aren’t you (husband’s name)? Last name starts with an A or something? (It does) You said I could call you and we could be together forever… Husband: Sorry but you have the wrong (husband’s name). Woman: But you said I could call you and you gave me your number and I am calling because I am going through a lot right now.. \*bursts out crying\* Husband: Wrong number. I am hanging up now. Woman: I love you daddy We laughed it off afterward as a strange scam call, but it’s still bothering me. I know it was probably a start to some kind of social engineering or romance scam but I’ve never heard of this tactic before. Has anyone else experienced a "wrong number" call that was this persistent and used such specific emotional manipulation?
