Mike Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 NEWTON, N.J. (AP) -- A misprint in a telephone book has led to some callers dialing a phone sex service while trying to reach a New Jersey political organization. A listing for the Sussex County Democratic Committee in Embarq's white pages sent people to a sultry female voice inviting them to pay for sex chat. Embarq spokesman Glenn Lewis told The New Jersey Herald of Newton that a transposition error caused the last three digits of the Democrats' phone number to be misprinted. He said the listing has been corrected in Embarq's directory assistance database. The organization's 800 number listed in the book's yellow pages was correct.

Jenny Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 This is my neck of the woods. I just got the phone book and called up the number. Yes it's true! Since I'm at work, I hung up after I heard "Hello Honey...". I figured since it was national news, they would have disconnected the number by now.
