to get hoax call at midnight

...only just calming down about this, am i being totally unreasonable?
i got a call at midnight on friday-a woman telling me she was my ex's sister and that he was in hospital and ill and wanted to see me. worried but not thinking it was odd at the time i had passed on alot of personal information to her as she was asking me all sorts.

by saturday morning i am bricking it, thinking she was some sort of mad stalker/jelous type and was going to come round and getting cross with myself for believing it.

The other half of me wondered if it were true and so i got upset at the thought of him being ill. not knowing what to do i did call a few local hospitals- in my mind to check out her 'story' one way or the other.

On sunday, i get an email from my ex-saying it was a paranoid woman going through his wallet who had found my number and he was fine.

I was rather cross as i had been so worried either way at the weekend and promptly mailed him to tell him so.
aibu to be majorly cross/upset by this?

Not at all. She's clearly bonkers. I would be livid.

Fuck me - that sounds frightening. Absolutely YANBU. Does your ex know the woman well?
