    Back in my direct mail days it was standard practise to put seed names and addresses into customer lists so that we could tell if our list was being used outside agreed boundaries.

    Still the case now,with electronic data. A handful of incorrect names for certain addresses are included and if there are attempts to contact them then the data can be tracked back.
    I await the call on my home number for a handful of names that don't live here. I'm sorry, he isn't in right now please leave your contact details so my company's legal department can contact you.
