Not geocaching, but funny!

I wanted to share this with my Arkansas friends, sorry if it is off topic!

I called a number I saw advertising a product.

I called, listened to a recording, entered the mailbox number advertised, the message said "Hang up now" and disconnected.

I thought that sounded mighty weird, and know that there are scams where you call a number and get hit with a big charge to your phone bill, so I called my cell provider, Cingular, and said "I think I have been bitten by a fraud, can you help me?"

After a moments silence she says "Oh my gosh, you were bitten by a frog!?! You called 611, you need 911!"

I about fell out of my chair just roaring with laughter, best phone call I think I have ever had!
