Which utopian planet do you live on? Since when asking to leave the people who're squatting in your house illegally is a bizarre thing to do? In most places in the world, illegal occupants deal not with a couple of polite and scared copywriters but with law enforcement & enraged legal owners of the property.

I'm not sure about cup, but what I find bizarre about it is because it implies they are expecting it to work. Calling the cops is not bizarre.

The bizarre thing is to expect to get rid of squatters without hassle, which is probably what the OP is pointing out.

One party had legal residence as determined by the law he couldn't be removed by the cops. The prior owner was a moron.
