That is true.

I once worked for an ecommerce company that got an irate customer. They
got a hold of our DID numbers and started war-dialing desk phones
sequentially to complain. They hit my number first, then my two desktop
support guys, then we heard a phone down the hall ring. We grabbed a
phone list and went from cube to cube, telling people not to answer, or
to answer it by saying "Hi, Marge!" (or whatever her name was...)

She eventually gave up, but not after calling 30 or 40 times.
