i made another video and im hoping to get more than one reply this time lol. 

anyways, me and my friend made this prank phone call, and she started crying. We really didn't mean for her to cry, but we think that she is very unstable and a tad crazy. When my friend told her that he has a ferrari, she was sounding like she was starting to take interest in her or something. its pretty creepy stuff. lol. 

without futhur ado:

I won't watch this, but i assume you have written permission from everyone involved in this?

I listened to the whole thing, don't know why, and it made me cry too. I sympathized with the victim for having to deal with annoying scum like you in the middle of the night.

I listened to the whole thing too and I thought it was FANTASTIC.
I don't know what these other guys are talking about here. The lady could've hung up at any time. She was not obligated to stay on the line to talk to a prankster. I mean, if it really was that early, WHY would she answer an anonymous restricted call at 2 AM? If the call really would've been an important call, couldn't she have... I dunno... Screened it before deciding whether she wanted to call back or not? There's no sympathy to give.

Also, she could've hung up and called her bank the next day to confirm if ANY company took money from her account. If they did, she could've had the transaction blocked.

This was a good prank call!

:p

im glad you enjoyed the call. not everybody would, and i am pretty familiar with how the average user is, here on vgchartz, and i suspected that a good majority of the users here wouldn't appreciate what we do, but i posted it for those who would get a kick out of it, and im happy that its making somebody laugh ^_^ lol, i noticed we had a dislike on our video this morning, and i instantly knew it came from somebody who watched it here. sure enough, first comment was disgusted with what we did. oops :x

and yes there are ethical matters about it that could be debated. but at the end of the day, its just a prank call, and its completely harmless.

thats something we have talked about and are not really sure of. there are literally thousands upon thousands of prank call videos on youtube, and with views in the five to six digit range, and i doubt that all of them have written consent from the so called 'victims.' but still, what does written consent do for us?

for the most part, as far as i know, it is illegal to record any phone calls with out letting everyone involved know before hand. privacy laws. http://www.dmlp.org/legal-guide/recording-phone-calls-and-conversations

thanks for the information. 

question though, you know there are a bunch of gamestop prank calls with a million views, do you really think that they are getting permission from these guys who got hella pissed off before they put it on their youtube channel? lol. if not, maybe its just one of those laws that dont get taken very seriously. either way, im going to read your link and we will do some research on it.

its taken seriously. but someone has to make a complaint. and you just dont know if those people are getting permission after the fact. I dont watch prank call videos, just not funny to me. just passing along info.
