Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
