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

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
Sure no problem officer.
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
HELLO
{RING} {RING}
Would you let your son wear leggings to school?
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
Yes sir it is.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
What is your age now, and what age do you prefer to stay at forever?
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.
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
Do you think Japan will have same-sex marriage by 2030?
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
After a few moments he returns.
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.
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?
