Day 17 - a strange phone call

I will answer questions in a couple days, but I wanted to relay this strange phone call I received today.  At firstt glance it was an 800 number, but when I looked at it afterwards, it didn't have enough numbers.  Anyway, when I answered it a lady said, "Hello this is Kathy Sanchez with the credit card fraud division."  I ask her which card and she ignores me.  She says, "There has been some suspicious activity on your credit card."  Again I ask which card and no response.  She asks me if I've been in Guatemala recently because there is a hotel charge for $400-something.  I start to say something and she says, "Hmmm, well there are also charges at a restaurant and a pet shop."  I don't say anything and she continues, "Okay, Okay, I understand you weren't there."  At this point I start laughing and then hang up.  It was an automated message.  I checked all of my cards and didn't see anything suspicious.  It was just a strange call.

Why would someone create such an annoying automated call?

Weird.
