what about?

I hear some people say, ‘what about’ where they should have been using ‘about what’(IMO).
As in the conversation below,
A: I have something very important to say to you?
B: what about?
Am I right or is it correct?

Either is fine in conversation.

Please be careful to punctuate sentences properly. "I have something ..." should take a period.
