When we receive a text message from a wrong number, we usually have a quick, obvious response. "Sorry, wrong number," we text back. Some people found this predictable response boring so they decided to have fun with these wrong text messages and cooked up outrageous replies.

So why do we sometimes receive texts not intended for us? The phone might have slipped from the sender's hands and the message might have accidentally gone to the wrong person or a drunk person could be goofing around and sending out texts to random numbers. Sometimes, the messages contain private and embarrassing information or pictures. Messages from unidentified senders could also lead to being duped or cheated in a fraud. Double-checking numbers and even the spelling of the recipient's name is crucial before we hit that Send button. But some people end up making careless mistakes while texting and give fun-loving recipients a chance to play along. 

We have shortlisted 20 of the most hysterically embarrassing text fails and the brilliantly savage replies from the recipients. So, scroll through and get inspired!
