There are rare occasions where sending the victim's call sign can be 
useful to everyone concerned.  Such as when there are two stations 
CQing on top of one another.

If they can't hear one another, this can be a service to the one you 
didn't call.  He now knows there is someone else CQ'ing at that same 
frequency, especially after he hears you send your exchange to the 
other station that he couldn't hear.

In the meantime, you have given a point to yourself and to the station 
you have called.  A win for everyone.
