What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Sure no problem officer.
I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
How can I decorate my house creatively?
Yes sir it is.
{RING} {RING}
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
HELLO
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
After a few moments he returns.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
