I remember this article… He went for a hike and didn’t tell his roommates when he would be back. He didn’t answer their calls (I’m assuming he needed some time alone), and was gone for more than 24 hours so they reported him missing. He just wanted some time away from his roommates and they put him the the national news.

So … if he could receive a call … couldn’t he make a call to someone he knows?

I wish people texted after failing to call me. I don’t answer calls from unknown numbers either but if you know me then text me so I know it’s not a spam number

If it’s important, they’ll leave a message. Otherwise it’s just another scam anyway
