    So - I put an ad up on done deal and within about a minute, some young fella rang me asking about it - using a kind of pakistani accent and then his friend joins in making out like he is indian! The two of them giggling and then hang up!

    As bad as it was a prank call attempt, they never blocked their number.

    GOOD PEOPLE OF AFTER HOURS - I NEED YOUR BEST!

    Send me the best and worst text newsletters you have ever come across and where to sign up - Kids going to be the most popular boy EVER!!!

    Also feel free to add any other fun things I can do with this number as long as it doesnt cost me money.

    Also - Is this illegal?

    Who cares if it's illegal. If you don't hide your number you deserve what you get.

    .......

    What time do you think they like waking up?
    We will make up to 3 calls to a number (5 mins apart). If the user does not press 1, an emergency number is called and warned. With custom audio you can load any MP3 file to be played to the caller at a scheduled time.

    No, just happened across it, thought it an appropriate response.

    I’m imagining they are teenage virgins so here goes.
    Monday after school times. Ring and say you are from James hospital there is an outbreak of a new kissing disease. A number of girls put his number on the list of people they recently kissed. Tell him he needs to come in for a test and treatment. It might get him to turn up at a hospital babbling or worry him a bit for a few seconds.

    Actually I just thought it'd be ironic and appropriate.

    PM me the number and I’ll tell you who they are.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 2,151 Mod ✭✭✭✭Oink


    Oh I have a good one.
    So you try and get his name and address from his phone number. Must be possible.
    Then you kill everyone he loves one at the time, saying... Wait for it...
    This is on you . You did this.

    Hilarity ensues!

    This reminds me of something..
    Please don't mock my naivety.. I was younger and less wiser.
    I had a ball gown online for sale. This was ten years ago so I can't even remember the site now.
    I had pictures up of me wearing it but my face cropped out.
    One night I got a private number call from a guy enquiring about it. He said he wanted to buy it for his gf for her debs.
    He was quite well spoken and wasn't giggling or anything. He also sounded young but not teenage.
    I completely bought his story about buying it and he was asking about shoes to match and details of the dress.
    I didn't even flinch when he asked if you'd wear a thong or full brief under it!
    It was only after he hung up and didn't text me his number as promised that I realised he must have been a pervert..
    I felt so creeped out for a while after that.

    Is that a confession?!
    Only time I was prank ed personally actually.
    Did a stint in a call centre once and one evening a gobby teenager rang in.
    I bluffed him by saying we had caller I'D and I was passing his number onto the Gardai.
    He wasn't bothered because he said he had robbed that phone today!

    Take a pic of concert / match tickets, or a nice car, or something very desirable, then put it up for sale on DoneDeal for a great price, and put their phone number as the contact....simples

    I remember one of my brothers friends managed to get hold of the school principals mobile number & rang him to inform him that Spyro the Dragon was better than Crash Bandicoot. Got a 3 day suspension so I guess he didn't agree.
