After Leo, who was born Robert Prevost, answered a series of security questions, the customer service representative offered him a seemingly straightforward solution.
'Oh, I'm sorry, sir. It says here you have to come in person,' the woman said, per McCarthy.
'Would it matter to you if I told you I'm Pope Leo?' he said.
That didn't work, either.
'She hung up on him,' McCarthy said. 'Could you imagine being known as the woman who hung up on the Pope?'"
