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

Sure no problem officer.

Why am I always so tired, no matter how much I sleep?

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?

Yes sir it is.

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

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.
