Essential Details About Arnold Prank Calls And Identical Acts

By Catherine Wallace


Practical jokes or commonly known as pranks are mischievous tricks played on someone, usually to let the victim experience discomfort, confusion, perplexity or embarrassment. These differ from hoaxes or confidence tricks because victims are told about the joke after rather than tricking them to hand over valuables like money. They are normally lighthearted and have no lasting impact.

Their aim is in making their target feel foolish and humbled but not humiliated and victimized by using gestures with affection and humor to encourage laughter. Samples of these are the Arnold prank calls which the caller use some sound clips acquired from movies of that actor into fooling the other person to think the one calling them is the celebrity. They use for this digital applications where they only choose recorded sentences in talking like them.

These were originally done by imitating voices of famous people while having these telephone calls that is easier since callers remain anonymous. Doing this became harder though because newer technology has been developed that lets you identify who is calling. These are caller IDs which could let individuals see names of the person calling them.

Pranksters can also use payphones because their numbers would not display in the device the receiver has but most people tend to not answer calls without caller Ids. These now have become less common since payphones are slowly being phased out with fewer ones left only. Their goal to remain anonymous is difficult with these.

Another alternative is becoming popular increasingly that is using services in VoIP which telephone numbers are simply nonexistent. Tracing these calls is very difficult because these are passing through various routers and servers operate by several entities from different countries. Although law enforcement agencies may trace them but their time, resources and effort is too great in tracing an ordinary prank.

With more people using the internet, the popularity of prank calls has increased again where some online radio stations are dedicated to this. They broadcast various submissions from the community and features them on their channel. There are software allowing them to privately share their pranks live to fellow users.

Sharing personally made pranks calls is possible through the internet and this allows them to develop a community. They could share these things live or those they previously recorded and some systems lets listeners chat while pranksters are calling their victims. This lets them discuss and give the caller suggestions on what they say.

Be careful though when you plan to do this yourself because laws are there against the abuse of this joke that is considered a crime. You could not call emergency services then pretend someone needs help immediately or just talk to them random things. Calling with intent of threatening, abusing or harassing someone is a crime too.

Another prank commonly done and considered a criminal act is when law enforcement agencies are contacted to report threats like explosives. This can cause inconvenience due to the area being searched or possibility of cancellation for the event there. They will trace your call and arrest you.
