How I Panicked A Fellow Fcp'er


Recommended Posts

I :club: Jay.However, we all know the AP Security phone number shows up as 1-222-222-2222 when they call you. I know because I got a call today, haha.
seriously, thats them? I had a call a few days ago, but I didnt answer it because I was busy at the time and when i checked missed calls that number came up with no message left and i was very confused. they never called back, pretty sure if it was them they just wanted to try and get me to deposit more money since my bonus was about to expire.

He got me sooooooo good it's not even funny. No wait, it's friggin hysterical, which is exactly how I was after I got the message. I keep probably 2/3 of my roll on AP, so when they said my account is frozen and I am accused of collusion, it was like OMG THERE GOES PRACTICALLY ALL THE MONEY I HAVE IN THE WORLD. I didn't listen to the message too carefully, just enough to get the words collusion, cheating, frozen, and him asking me to send photo IDs and 'visual evidence.' So I immediately call back the number, and I get AP's main customer service line. Now at this point, who in their right mind thinks it's a prank? I mean there was zero thought in my mind that it was fake - it was AP's fucking phone number in my caller ID! So I call back, give them my info and explain that I just got a message about my account being frozen. The guy says my account is fine, but would I like them to transfer me to security? Me: 'Yes, I mean I JUST got a message saying I'm accused of cheating and my account is frozen, are you guys this clueless, etc?' He transfers me, but I'm on hold for about 2 minutes so I hang up and check my message again to see if 'Ken Andrews' had left me a direct line. In the shock and panic of hearing the message initially, I didn't bother writing anything down. So, no Ken Andrews just left me AP's main number. Thanks a lot cocksucker, you guys really have your shit on straight, huh? So anyways I call back and ask them to transfer me to security again, and this time while I'm on hold I sign on to AIM and talk to Jay, since I know he play a ton on AP and maybe he knows wtf is going on. Jay: It was me, it's a prank.Me: That's not funny dude, it wasn't you this is serious.Jay: No, it was me I swear.Me: Dude, AP's ****ing number came up in my caller ID, it wasn't you, I'm on the phone with them now hang on.Jay: I swear to Otis [his dog] it was me!Well when he swore to Otis I realized he was serious, and then he said the bit about how they asked me to provide visual proof of myself playing, and explained about his new phone contraption. At this point I had given the security woman all my info and had told her I got a message about my account. I didn't say anything about my account being frozen, and just when I was about to Jay explained it to me. So then I'm about to tell the woman 'omg nevermind, my friend just pranked me really bad,' but she says 'Oh yeah we called you a few weeks ago about this $1200 transfer, transfers over $1000 require authorization etc etc.' I already knew this since I had to get on their live chat support to complete the transfer, and had missed a call from them (which incidentally came up as 222-222-2222 on my phone, but I wasn't thinking about that when I got the goddam frozen account message). Anyways I say 'Yeah that must be it, I guess it was an old message and I re-did that account transfer with support so it's all good, thanks.'And then I had the opposite of a heart attack. Easily the best prank ever pulled on me. When I re-listened to the message to get Ken Andrews' direct line it did sound a bit like 'Ken Andrews' was using a voice modulator (he was), but honestly my thought was - Weird, AP must use voice modulators. I mean, THE GODDAM CALLER ID WAS ABSOLUTE'S NUMBER!!!Ok here's the kicker though: this all pales in comparison to another prank Jay pulled with the phone this week. He called a friend of his, we'll call him Mystery Man #1 (not his real name), and left a message from a health clinic saying 'Mystery Woman #1 came in last week and tested positive for an STD, and she listed you as one of her past sexual partners, so we wanted to inform you and suggest that you get yourself checked, and inform any of your sexual partners, etc etc.' And of course the caller ID was from a local health clinic. So Mystery Man calls them back, fuming mad and insisting that his privacy has been violated. He called them maybe 3 times, and they didn't know what he was talking about and eventually just hung up on him. So he called the police to report a violation of privacy (I'm not sure what law would have been broken had the call been real, but apparently something). The plan was to subpoena his phone records. Anyways that night Jay told him about the prank, and learned about all the clinic and police calls. Mystery Man #1 did not see the humor, at least not for a day or so.
I LOL'd That is freaking hilarious

I think I've seen the 000-000-0000 as well, but like 95% of the time it's the 22222222222222 number.And ya, Scotty, they will call if you stopped playing, and ask why you quit or whatever. If you still don't come back, they'll offer you a ridic amount of bonus, if you were high volume, anyways.

Ah yes. Forget God or their mother, Jay swears to an unexplicably good looking pug instead.

Jay, you didn't prank me yesterday did you?Cause I got a call from the corporate office of the restaurant I used to work at... I didn't answer, and they didn't leave a message, but I can't see why they would call me.

Anyone have Phil Hellmuth's number?
This could be sf epic. Call him from the IRS and claim that he's been using UB to funnel money out of the country for tax evasion.
