There is something wrong with Delta's upgrade system. I was recently on a flight from DEN to DTW as a GM on a V fare and I was the very last on the upgrade list. I was 37 of 37. It is hard for me to believe that there were that many elites and not a single silver on that plane.
Delta needs to come clean with how they determine upgrades.

If your DOB is 1977 then you aren't a minor and Delta shouldn't be listening to your "mother".

Could someone also have your exact name? I have someone with my name in Cincinnati and the system/agents will confuse us from time to time.

("My son, who you have as a 16-year-old, is really 38 years old." "I'm sorry, ma'am, a 38-year-old has to phone in himself and not get his mother to handle it.")

How would somebody with the same name be able to verify all of my information? This seems like a case of someone that I know who is trying to do this just to cause me pain when I travel.
I also do not think it is a random person because what benefit does the person who is cancelling the tickets get?
I just can't think of anyone that would do this though... I will leave this to the police so they can trace the IP address, and or the phone numbers used to call DL and cancel the tickets.

I don't think this is the case. Usually when I call in myself, they ask me which trip, my full name, and because my tickets have been cancelled before, they ask to verify the address on file, my date of birth, email address and passcode documented.

None of my friends know all of this information about me; can't wait till this is over. I think the police are getting a warrant for all of DL's records so they can investigate further...

A long history of watching TV shows like the X-Files causes me to wonder if OP is doing this unaware, like sleep-walking behavior.
Check your outgoing call logs on your phone, and ask someone you trust to change your Delta password to something you don't know for a few days and see if this stops

Combine this and your other post and I would say that you have had more bad luck by age 16 than I have after 22+ years and 3M BIS miles... Even though you are "16" you will want to avoid any and all games of chance because Lady Luck obviously has it out for you. You might do us all a favor and let us in on which flights you are on... I for one will avoid them at all costs.
