That could happen, but how easy would it be to dismiss that out of hand, which they would do. If it turned out to be a genuine signal, the person who found it would have their equipment and the recordings confiscated. They'd be interrogated and then released, but the chances of the story being authenticated by the press or anyone else would be close to zero unless someone blabbered. In any case, many people wouldn't believe the person or the story.
