Don't look at me.

Someone said that 'Don't look at me.' means 'I don't know.'.
Would you let me know if it's true.
Thanks.

Yes. It can mean that... For example: If a policeman asks a groups of boys "Who broke that window?" One of them might say to him, "Don't look at me." This means either, I don't know or It wasn't me. Or both.
