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

After a few moments he returns.

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

When I buy a house, do I automatically own all items the previous owner failed to remove from the property?

Sure no problem officer.

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.

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

What is a good investment portfolio for someone starting in their 20s? 90% VT and 10% BND for a Roth IRA then 100% TDF for a 401k?

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

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.

Yes sir it is.

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

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

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