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

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
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.
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?
HELLO
Do you remember one day, you put a deep smile on someone's face and made them very happy?
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Sure no problem officer.
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.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
{RING} {RING}
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.
What is the estimated number of people with an extra X chromosome?
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?
