Some British jerk in South Shields started sending creepy texts from a dead grandma’s old cell phone number.
Sheri Emerson lost her dear grandmother, Lesley Emerson, in 2011. Her grandmother died shortly after she was diagnosed with bowel cancer leaving the family with words left unsaid.
Sheri started sending text messages to her deceased grandmother to help with her mourning. The one-way messages continued for three years until the day Grandma Lesley wrote back.
“I’m watching over you,” the text read, “and it’s all going to get better. Just push through.”
After Lesley’s death, the British cell phone company O2 promised the family, they wouldn’t sell the phone number. But, as it turns out, Lesley’s digits were sold to another carrier who then assigned them to a customer.
Sheri Emerson exchanged several few rude texts with the prankster who assumed Emerson’s sincere, grief-filled texts were a joke. O2 says it is working to recover the phone number for the family.
