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

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Yes sir it is.

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.

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.

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
