Prank phone
calls are when you call up your friends, pretending to be someone else, to play a joke on the person on the other line. Making your first prank phone is almost a rite of passage in your youth. It's important to consider the consequences of making prank phone calls before diving in. Your parents may not find it so funny, removing your phone privileges or worse, the recipient may not find it funny and could contact the authorities.
Instructions
1. Determine the joke/prank you plan on making. The key to a good prank call is coming up with a premise that the recipient will fall for before realizing the call is a prank.
2. Determine the recipient of your prank. It is a smart idea to keep the prank calls to friends and family members. Prank-calling the wrong people can land you in trouble.
3. Dial "*67" before dialing the phone number of the recipient. This prevents your phone number from showing up on the recipient's caller ID. Not only does having your name show up on the caller ID ruin the believability of the prank, but it also immediately reveals your identity.
4. Disguise your voice when talking. Whatever you do, don't laugh mid-prank --- that's a dead giveaway, and the recipient will likely hang up.
