What happened to, “Hi Mary, I am so so and so…, from…., and….” Straight up mention who you are and what you need to inform her about, she also needed to feel comfortable with who she was chatting with from a strange number.

In the age of social media it’s very easy to jump to conclusions. In as much as she’s wrong, the guy should have introduced himself first. However, I don’t think we can always use WhatsApp encounter to judge someone. We don’t know why she reacted that way.

Many still make this mistake. I learned this thing when i worked in call center at my first job. Be polite untill you can really tell who the person at the other end is.
