Someone with a little knowledge of musical golden oldies is jangling nerves in Delaware.



Some people getting late night and early morning telemarketing calls in the Wilmington area have been doing a double take when they see the number on their caller ID: 867-5309. That's part of the title of a



1980s hit =97 "867-5309/Jenny" =97 by the band Tommy Tutone.

Lindsey Vitalo of the Pike Creek got one of the calls at 4:20 a.m. Sunday. She answered, fearing the call was about a family emergency, but got a mortgage refinancing pitch.
