So I lost my wallet yesterday at The Charles. At least I think it was The Charles, which was the only place I went yesterday.
Today, upon returning home from shopping with my parents, I had seven voice messages on my machine from a woman saying, "I've got your wallet. I'm calling back in twenty minutes." The messages were left between noon and 4pm, and she called almost every half hour. Then, they stopped. The last message said, "Alright, I guess the wallet isn't that important to you."
No number was left. No name was left. I have a listed number, and I'm sure she just looked me up in the phone book.
My dad, the cynical retired cop, thought the messages were vaguely threatening, in that she is going to expect money for returning the wallet - like several hundred dollars. So I made a police report. It's been three hours since her last call.
I'm not sure what she'll do. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. The credit cards haven't been touched yet. Also in the wallet were my driver's license, my social security card, my BCPSS ID card, three credit cards, and my Visa debit card. No cash, only some receipts and the free passes to The Charles.
Shit. This sucks.

I'm really sorry you have to go thru all this shit. It's not fair. Did you "star 69" to get the phone number of the call or call the phone company number for "phone harassment" that can trace the calls?
that sucks! "Anonymous" suggested what I was going to: try to trace the call. I have been ripped off/lost my wallet and had weird responses to it. Don't people realize you're already freaked out? Sheesh.
Hoping you get it back without incident.
Wow...this is exactly like Twisted City! I reviewed it awhile back...the main character is in exactly your situation, except he makes the mistake of dealing with her. If you haven't read it, I'll give you some good advice: don't call her back; trace the call and let the police handle it.
i'm sure you've been told this about 1000 times by now...but please, please don't carry your social security card in your wallet!!!! you have the number memorized right??
