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

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
After a few moments he returns.
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
I've written three books, but I haven't been able to promote them yet. What should I do?
HELLO
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
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'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.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
What are mean nicknames to call my sister? She is always so mean to me.
Yes sir it is.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
Does eating bread before bed make you fat? If so, why?
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?
