It's a known thing to dial one number and reach another? Can you provide a link? What do you mean by intercept? In any case, I doubt enormously that anything of the kind happened to me; when I successfully contacted my party in the US via an 877 number, I was told there was a snafu concerning their direct line, a *general* one affecting many customers (who all heard the Englishwoman's recorded voice), as if we might still be in the days of telephone exchanges and manual service and some operator was plugging the ringing cord into an erroneously labelled jack (so instead of connecting people to Major Financial Institution Department 22 people were connected to Bristol Furniture and Storage).
