I tried to log on to my online bank account. It repeatedly claimed that my account was locked down and to call some 800 number to resolve the problem.
I dialed, listened to a computer and responded to the command options. Finally, I was able to talk with a human.
"What can I help you with today?"
"My online account keeps saying that it's locked."
He proceeded to ask me very detailed questions about purchases I had made to verify my account so he could allow me to access it again. He asked me to give answers to my security questions. I remembered and was able to answer all of them correctly, but I had forgotten about a last one.
"And.. there's a fourth question. Do you remember it?"
".....uhh.... I don't remember any other ones."
"It's 'Who is your best friend?'"
An enormous smile stretched across my face.
I answered, "....Jesus...."
"Yes.... Jesus is your best friend..... Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"....No... no, that's all."
