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

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
After a few moments he returns.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
What is the difference between heaven and heavens?
HELLO
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
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.
Yes sir it is.
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.
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?
Why are Americans obese? Is it the food or is it the psychology?
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.
Sure no problem officer.
