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

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Yes sir it is.
HELLO
Sure no problem officer.
{RING} {RING}
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Where did the false claim that Haitian immigrants are eating pets come from?
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.
After a few moments he returns.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Can you share 100 facts about yourself?
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
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.
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
What misfortune led to an important discovery?
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?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
