    Hi Guys,

    Getting prank calls for the last 4 or 5 days, I have the number used.

    What's the best way to just piss them off? Signing up to premium text services etc...

    Any Ideas?

    Falsely singing anyone up to any service is tantamount to committing fraud and mis-representation.
    Both of which alone are answered for in an Irish court.

    One should be VERY weary of asking people how to do this - never mind actually doing it!
    (Never mind also asking on a public forum where everything is subsequently on record and might be used as evidence later!)

    I say the above in the wish that the OP should be careful in how he responds.
    I wouldn't wish to see anyone here get into trouble.

    Ad in local paper offering a job, barperson wanted, no previous experience required or something. Will obviously cost a few quid but the way things are these days, they'll get hundreds of calls for days, that ought to learn em!

    Write personal ad claiming to be a young, newly single, promiscuous woman. Also add that pics are welcome.

    A few years ago, we kept getting phone calls to my house asking about the "grey-footed geese" we were apparently selling. I live in Dublin, I dunno where we were supposed to have the space for all these geese...

    Anyway, turns out there was an ad in Buy & Sell with our number. Never did find out if it was a prank or a misprint.

    So yeah: put out an ad saying he's selling grey-footed geese. He'll get all sorts of weirdos... hopefully including the person who left a message on our answering machine and forgot their own phone number :P

    Got a few prank calls , had their number.

    Decided to respond by going to the o2 website and scheduling my 250 free texts to him on the hour every hour, day and night with the message " what time is it? "

    After 3 days he was begging me to stop ..... gave it another couple of days for good measure.

    WD he obviously deserved it if he hadn't the brain to put his phone on silent or something.

    Still like it though

    1. Put adds up on Gumtree with his car & house for sale.

    2. Also put up furniture free to take away.

    3. Put adds up on daft of apartments to rent.

    4. Dating websites saying he is looking for a boyfriend.

    5. If you know his address block you number and ring about 5 or six places and get food delivered to him all different times at night, giving his name and number

    6. Rob his reg plates in the middle of the night and put them on a very similar car and do a few laps of the TOLL PLAZA let him get a huge bill weeks later.
    I like your style!


    I forgot my favourite retalliation. CAKE all the door handles and the boot handle of their car in Vaseline so they can't get into it..

    An ad for half price (ono) tickets to see Rammstein at the O2, say you have to get rid of them quickly because you got offered a job and need to leave the country this week.

    Not quite a prank caller, but maybe you could try something a little like this:
