Happened to my friend as well. He moved into a new apartment and got a new (recycled actually) phone number. Ended up getting calls from some collection agency for the previous user of that phone # every day. And it was easier to change the phone # than to try to get them to stop calling.

As for me, I have a telemarketer calling my cell phone with a recorded message every &$&^ day. Getting other people's recycled phone #s always sucks...
