Yeah, sorry, wrong number.

This morning at 2am (just about the time I'd finally settled in for bed) I got a phone call which, as soon as I picked up, disconnected.
I was a little concerned, since anybody who calls me at two in the morning is probably in need. And it wasn't a number I recognized. So I reverse dialed, and the person on the other end quickly picked up.
I said "I just received a call from this number--"
"No you didn't. Because nobody's been using this phone." The response was quick and firm, and would brook no disagreement.
Um. Whatever. "Okay thanks. *click*"

Does anybody recognize this number? 408 842 4512

There's also the joy that it could be like what happened to me... I got a cellphone, and they programmed it with a number... apparently at the same time as someone else was assigned the same number.
We got it sorted out after answering each others' calls for a week (I finally had the idea that I should just call my own # from the cellphone and see what happened, and got to talk to 'em).
Anyway... the person who dialed the wrong # might not have been the person you reached at all, really... and if it's been happening recently, it would explain the person's instant irritation. :-P

Anyway. I'm just making this up.
