A friend and I used to have a Newhart shtick with pretend obscene phone calls. Once she answered a call (landline no caller ID back then) and a voice asked her what she was wearing. She said, Jack this is lame. Do the breathing. The caller said this wasn’t Jack and started telling her “what” to do. She replied Now that’s better Jack but put more emotion into it. This went on for about two minutes with the caller getting more and more frustrated and finally he yelled THIS ISN"T JACK AND YOU’RE SICK LADY!!
Anyway, a month later we were with friends and playing the shtick and she said you’re call last month was lame. I said what call? The one where you yelled. I didn’t make that call, I said. Wow, she replied there’s an obscene caller out there who thinks I’m the pervert.
My mother was a God-fearing Christian woman who divorced my dad when I was about 12. Across the street lived a retired schoolteacher with bad arthritis, walked with a cane, and he and his wife favored my dad over my mother. He would call a few times a week asking my mother what she was wearing, if she had been tanning in the back yard in her bikini, etc.. We recognized his voice. One day the phone rang and my mother answered it. He said, “If you can guess what I’m holding in my hand I’ll let you have it…”. Mom replied, “Buddy, if you can hold it in one hand I’m not interested!” He hung up and never called again…

Sorry, but all I can think of is “party line” with a focus on “party”…

Reminds me of an old joke:
If a man talks dirty to a woman, the charge is sexual harassment.
If a woman talks dirty to a man, the charge is $3.99 per minute.
