I had the swat team called on me once.
Someone apparently called some place and used a name similar to my real name. They told the person who answered the phone that they had a shotgun and they were going to kill themselves. Since there is only two people in the state with my name the swat team surrounded my house.
I wasn't home at the time. I got a call from my office asking me to call Sargeant So and So. I called, explained that it wasn't me, and had to go to my house to give them a tour to verify that no one was in there with a loaded gun.
Unfortunately I deleted the several answering machine messages with the negotiator begging me to come out and talk about the situation.

Go fuck yourself. Hard.
