Faking your own death

ilovesleep · 23-05-2013 10:06pm #1

I was told something before of young people taking out a loan or more from their bank and when it's nearly paid back and it's still lingering and they are sick to death of making the repayments, they just stop paying. When the bank requires about it and sends letters, the person gets a parent to write a letter to the bank saying:
'my son/daughter died, bla bla bla, and leave me alone with your letters so I can mourn my child in peace'

or some such thing.

Well I would like to do something similiar now but it's not to get out from a loan.

I'd like to fake my death to someone. A stale old friendship that I never want to see again. I get an odd email sometime and I just ignore it and I feel bad about that.

So how would I go about doing something like this?

Thought about putting a piece into the death notices of a paper but only funeral homes can do that.

Any ideas?

Wouldn't it be easier just to tell this person to fúck off.

If it's nearly all payed back why would you fake your own death??

I've just realised RIP is an acronym for Reginald Iolanthe Perrin

I was getting nuisance calls from a catalogue company for someone I don't even know because she owes them money. After them calling every day for weeks no matter how many times I told them to delete my number, even telling them to **** off when they called me after a night shift, the calls kept coming.
So one day I put on a solemn tone and said. I'm sorry Karen died a several weeks ago. We're you a friend of her's?
She went on to say how sorry she was and that she was calling about money owed to the catalogue company.
I said no problem, I understand.
Then she asked for my details so she could transfer the debt to my name!

Pure cheek of them! Still got the calls daily asking for Karen.

So no, OP. It won't work.
