Yesterday at work I was processing a credit card order for a Bankruptcy Education purchase. The guy on the other line was giving me the expiration date of his debit card.

‘‘May of _phone cuts out_’’  
‘‘I’m sorry, would you mind repeating that again?’’  
‘‘Yeah, I think the phone cut out. It expires in May of _phone cuts out_’’  
Pause. ‘‘May of _phone cuts out._’’  
Then from the other end of the line: ‘‘I think someone may be playing with us.’’
