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

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

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?
HELLO
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
After a few moments he returns.
Sure no problem officer.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Yes sir it is.
What is your favourite true story to tell at a party?
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
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?
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
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.
