Jeremy’s Little Corner Of The Web…

The weirdest thing happened last night. I received a call on my mobile at about 5am, from an English guy, which went a bit like this:

Pom: Hi there, could I speak to Jeremy please?
Me: Speaking…
Pom: I'm calling to let you know that you haven't confirmed your enrollment in the Faculty of Commerce at some university in Epsom.
Me: … I'm sorry, wha? I think you have the wrong number.
Pom: Oh OK. Sorry about that.

[Hangs up.]
[2 minutes later]

Pom: Hi again. I checked my records and this is the correct number. This is Jeremy Higgs, right?
Me: Yes.
Pom: And you live in my correct suburb?
Me: Yes…
Pom: Well that's all correct then. Would you like to confirm your enrollment for this year in the Faculty of Commerce?
Me: Well, uh, I'm a student at UNSW in Sydney, Australia. I don't live in the UK.
Pom: Oh. We have you in our records as a student here.
Me: …
Pom: What time is it over there?
Me: … 5am.
Pom: Blimey! I'm very sorry about that.

The name of the university escapes me at this time, but it was just an absurd conversation. How on earth would I have been entered as a student at a university in the UK, with my correct details?

However, the cynic in me says maybe it was an attempt to try and get me to hand over personal information or a scam. The only thing I let him know was my name and suburb (which he already knew), so what was the point?

Weird…
