In the days before cell phones, I was at a car dealer. They took my keys for the appraisal, and basically wouldn't give them back. I calmly asked if I could use the phone. "Of course," the salesperson said. I called 911 and reported that I had been kidnapped, explaining that I was being held against my will. My keys promptly reappeared.

I had to threaten to call 911 and report my car stolen once. I had my phone out and had dialed the 911 and he stopped me before I hit call and STILL tried to talk to me before getting them.
