1. Record what happened in your own words

Step 1 of 4 · Record Illustration

What happened, in your own words Phone rang while I was at work. A man said he was with Acme Solar and that I qualified for a free home energy review. I asked him to stop calling. I think it was around 3:15.

How it reached you Phone call (selected) Text message Voicemail

Your original recollection is kept exactly as written. Fictional example.

What this step is for

  • Write it down while it’s fresh, in plain language.
  • Approximate is fine. Say “about” or “I think” when you’re not sure.
  • Later steps add to this entry. They don’t replace it.

2. Preserve the evidence you already have

Step 2 of 4 · Preserve Illustration

Displayed identifier (212) 555-0147 · “SOLAR SVCS”

Claimed identity Caller claimed to represent Acme Solar.

Important exact words “I’m with Acme Solar.” (remembered exactly)

Evidence you already have call-log-2026-03-03.png

In the preview, no files can be attached and nothing is uploaded. Fictional example.

What this step is for

  • Record the number or name your phone displayed, labeled as displayed, not as verified.
  • Record who the caller said they were, as a claim: “Caller claimed to represent Acme Solar,” not “Acme Solar called me.”
  • Put words you remember exactly in quotation marks. Label paraphrases.
  • Keep screenshots, voicemails, and texts you already have, as they are.

3. Review what is known and what isn’t

Step 3 of 4 · Review Illustration

Responsible organization Known Unknown (selected)

Correction Original: “around 3:15” · Corrected: about 2:40 p.m. · Reason: call-log screenshot shows 2:41 p.m. The original stays in the record.

Contradiction Caller said “we spoke last month.” I have no memory or record of an earlier call.

Unknown is a legitimate final answer. Corrections never erase the original. Fictional example.

What this step is for

  • Mark what you don’t know as Unknown. That’s a complete answer.
  • Add corrections next to the original, with a reason.
  • Keep contradictions visible instead of choosing a side.

4. Your Communication Record

The Journal is intended to organize everything above into one Communication Record. Keep, print, or share your Communication Record when you choose.
