Anybody know off the top of your head how you say "I think you have the wrong number" in Spanish?

In English, but louder and more slowly? Maybe stick an O on the end of a few words?

I only know this because I watched "Fawlty Towers" - Que?

Hey now. This is actually a serious question. She isn't a whore because she accidentally called my number while trying to dial a Spanish-speaking person.

By shouting, "YOU HAVE WRONG NUMBER!!!!" very slowly. The slower and louder you are, the better.

You could also go with "no habla" (literally "don't speak" but colloquially, "i don't speak the language you're speaking") which might also work.
Or "no aqui" (not here)

Also, words with latin roots may also work. Numero incorrect, mal... hell, numero el Satan. :)

A Babelfish translation of "you have the wrong number" is: Usted tiene el número incorrecto.

My vague understanding of Spanish parses this as a literal translation, and I *think* "usted" is the formal mode of address. That should get the point across, even if the translation isn't colloquial.

that is in fact a correct literal translation.
