 Posted: 23:02 - 13 Aug 2008  Post subject: Pranks... |
 |
|
OK following on from Luke's thread, after finding out about these SMS pranks, thought I would give it a go. Lets see if anyone else has done any similar? Didnt want to go too off topic in Lukes thread...
Had a right laugh with my mum earlier, she'd been on about how much it would cost to use facebook on her phone, I just said its whatever her data usage contract is with her network.
Here's the first message I sent...
| Code: | Message From: Facebook UK
You recently started using Facebook mobile, as aware theres a standard charge on this service. This weeks balance stands at £15.72 we'll update you weekly |
She quickly replies to my phone...
| Code: | | Mum: Can you go on facebook and cancel my mobile account, they trying to charge me 16quid...password is ******** |
So I think hmm here we go...
| Code: | Message From: Facebook UK
As a customer why not take advantage of our new pre approved offer? Status updates text to you. Each texts £1.50 & run automatically from today, disable online |
Almost Immediately...
| Code: | | Mum: Ring me please |
I included surnames, just removed them on here.. thought I would hint by putting the bit about gadget on internet..
| Code: | Message From: Facebook UK
Status Updates: Leesas enjoyin a cuppa tea - Vickys soaked from bike night! :( - Rhys has a new gadget on the internet :-P hehhe ;) ;) |
She doesn't realise...
| Code: | | Mum: Do it quick, been charged 1.50 for your status report change, hurry please cancel it |
Phone call...facebook are trying to charge me so n so money, Rhys please go on my account and sort it out, I've just been charged for your status updates...she tells me how shes texting her mates not to change their status updates 
Lets give her some more money to think about going down the pan... (she said on the phone she was at a fireworks display...thought I would put a hint again as she would think hmm whys it say shes watchin fireworks the only person who knows that was me..)
| Code: | Message From: Facebook UK
Status Updates: Henry had a great pic session today :) - George is relaxing by the sea - Jill is watching fireworks! :-) |
Nope, still fallen for it...
| Code: | | Mum: Rhys please ring me |
Ok so I do the good thing, I cancel it, but lets have a tenner charge, along with a stupid address which she should've picked up on (Mosque Hill...we live on Church Hill!)
| Code: | Message From: Facebook UK
Cancellation Notice: Thankyou, as stated in the contract agreed, you'll be charged £10 cancellation fee. Please send with remaining balance by cheque to:75 MosqueHill, Abu Dhabi EN208DH |
...Long phone call about how they're going to take money etc, still hasnt got it, I tell her about all the hints and stuff, she still doesn't believe me, "how come it said it was from Facebook UK though?" haha this was sooo funny. She said on phone my Dad was ranting saying "told you, you shouldnt have bothered with this facebook mallarky" and all that
---
Did another to my bro, who ages ago got suspended from ebay for selling tomtoms on microsd cards...
| Code: | From: TomTom Plc.
We've been informed by Ebay of previous counterfeit sales by you of our products. We take big hits financially from people like yourselves so we take it very seriously, we are taking it up in court to reinstate our losses, so will be in contact with dates through the post soon. |
He didnt reply though, I'd already been on phone and told mum how I was pranking her (it'd gone on for few hours, shes on hol at the mo so couldnt have it go on too long, but bro was with her so he realised it was a prank :/ )
awesome
