A young man on a quest to find a woman he met last week sent an email to more than 200 University of Calgary students with a similar name, sparking a friendship between many of the people who received the message.
Several women who received the email on Friday morning say it came from a man name Carlos, who wrote that a woman named Nicole gave him the wrong phone number after he took her and her friend home on Thursday night.
One of the 246 people on the mass email B´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·” most of whom were also named Nicole B´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·” said the message did not immediately reconnect the pair, but it caused many of the Nicoles at the university to bond.
Nicole DuGraye says she decided to create a Facebook group and plan a get-together with the Nicoles in a bid to make friends and to find the woman Carlos was looking for.
A post in the group from the emailB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s intended target says she didnB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™t receive the message, but learned about it because it started circulating on social media.
The post says she meant to give Carlos her number, but he might have gotten a digit wrong when he wrote it down.
