Yep. I've even gotten calls saying I'm about to be arrested for credit card fraud or some such and have to call back right now, police are on their way lol.

Oh man, I was drinking water while reading this and I started choking up from the laughter, haha.


I got a call once saying I had won some money and "all" I needed to do was to send them my bank account info so they could wire the money. Sadly it was pre-recorded so I didn't get to tell them to fuck off, lol.

It was on the answering machine the first time, so I guess the police found an empty house haha.
They called about 5 more times with that same nonsense, the police must be really slow here.

The most fun we had was with a call supposedly from our bank trying to talk us into changing our mortgage etc. However the guy on the other side sounded a lot like a friend of ours who would be very capable of prank calls. So first we strung him along, then started accusing him of pulling our leg. You're not fooling me, you're such and such. Passing him to my wife who confirmed, yep that's him all right. He kept claiming he wasn't while we were laughing our ass off. The whole call lasted about 20 minutes before we hang up. It wasn't our friend, was a real guy at the bank trying to talk to us about our mortgage lol.
