Why would paint come off a car?

About a week ago I went outside and I noticed that the paint on the hood of my car was coming off. It looked really weird. It looked like someone had carved spiral circles and waves all over it. the paint was some what attached but you could lift it up. It was literally just designs.

I called the police station to make a report and they sent an officer out. The officer said that he had never seen anything like it and said that there wasn't actual evidence of vandalism. He said there wasn't any scratch marks under the paint or anything and there wasn't any indentions in the car but he couldn't figure out how it could have happened. He said that if there was a chip or something in the paint then water could have got underneath and caused it to bubble up and do that. But there wasn't a chip in the paint, not even a scratch! And it shouldn't all peel off at once.

When I started driving down the road a bunch of it flew off so I just stopped and took the rest off. Every bit of the paint came off, now all is left is the metal. I still think some one done something to it because I don't see how it could have all came off like that. Does any one have any ideas?
It is down to bare metal, and I wasn't asking the cop for his opinion, when I first saw it I thought some one had done something to it so I wanted to file a report so the cop had to look at it. And the reason I thought some one had done it is for one, I don't know much about cars, and two, I had a strange voice mail from some one saying they found where I live the same morning that happend to the car. And the car had been sitting there for a few days.
It is an 2004 malibu and the is a dark purple/maroon color.
