I just got a threatening phone call last night!

haha.. That's too serious a joke.. LOL ^_^ Imagine if he dun tell u the truth until u transfer him the money, then he reveal himself and return u the money again.. LOL ^_^ That will be more real and fun instead.. hehe.. BUt i wun want that to happen.. hehe ^_^ But it's definitely innovative for your long lost fren to contact u in this way.. haha

Wow! That was some experience! That was really scary too. So probably the friend was really long lost that you forgot his voice already but what he did was really pretty mean. He must be having a kick out of it. He should have found another way to play a prank on you thats not so threatening. Life is hard and dangerous enough already. Im surprised that you still listened to the call. If that was me the moment I knew that I dont know the person I jsut hang up. You're more friendly that way or maybe he said something to you in the first few seconds that caught your attention and just had to keep listening. I dont answer phone calls that I dont know who the caller is. If its in the landline and I dont know who it is I ask who he/she is looking for if they dont answer or I dont know the person I jsut hang up. Im not tolerant of those phone calls and it annoys me especially when Im busy doing something. Well, you should get together with your long lost friend and give him a huge playful punch on the side to let him experience some of the scare that you had. Have fun!^_^

That is something else. If I had someone do that kind of thing to me, I would be a nervous wreck also. I think if I had a friend to do that to me, I would probably go off on them and tell them it is not funny at all, especially these days with all of the corruption going on in the world.

That wasn't very nice of him!! I know people do this a lot and think it's funny but it's not so funny to the person getting the call. Couldn't he have told you that you won a prize or something?

That is a really bad joke, I would have been really cross if he was my friend! I have never had anyone play a bad joke like that on me, and I hope someone would not be that cruel. But at least it was a joke, in todays world it could quite possibly happen.

you should of know right of the bat that if someone calls you asking for that much money and they know that you don't have that much that it was a joke lol. but thank god that it was and hope your friends don't scare you like that again!

ha ha.. that was really mean. Must have scared the hell out of you. ~Pinks~

thanks GOD it was a joke. it must have taken life out of you. but i do not like that type of jokes at all. when the person is my true friend why he would do so, what cvan make me uncomfortable

If this is how he treats his friends - don't make him an enemy!

Your friend needs to get another sense of humor put in and get rid of the old one. That is not a funny joke. What if you had called the police. Than, you would have been fined for calling in a false alarm. Your friend should rethink such pranks because it could eventually cost someone something. It could even have cost your friend something if you had called the cops and they traced the prank back to your friend.

He would not be a friend any longer. Too mean

i don't think i'd EVER get over that "joke". there is too much real stuff like that going on in the world. i'm glad that it turned out ok for you, though - hope he didn't shorten your life by 10 years.

That's terrible. I would have been very upset with my friend. Your friend is very lucky that you didn't call the police immediately. I would have.

man, i would have sh*t in my pants if that happened to me. glad it was only a joke.

haaa... haa... haaa.. your friend is really playing a mean trick on you... glad that the person is your long lost friend though... well, you should meet up with him and get even with him for what he had done to you... :-) have fun with your long lost friend and have a nice day...

what a terrible joke, that could make people really afraid. Thank goodness it was only a joke, but you must tell him not to do it again.

That is a mean mean joke to pull. I would have been so mad if were you.

To be honest, if I got a phone call like that (and I sort of have, i'll explain) I would have hung up and called the police right away. I wouldn't care if he called back and saaid it was a joke. That's such a serious thing to do to someone. When I was 16 I had a guy in his early 20's call my house, he called me every week for about 3 months. Threatening me, he knew where I lived, my full name, my birthday, my school. He just didn't know my work. He used to tell me if I didn't kill myself, he'd come to my house and literally drive me crazy until I did it. He managed to get my cell phone number, he called that while I was working and tried to get one of the girls to tell him where I worked. It was so scary. After the second phone call I called the cops and they were showing up everywhere I was every day to check in on me. Prank calls like that should be taking really seriously. Had that not been a friend you could have potentially been really hurt.

That's awful! What a horrible joke to play - if that was my friend I would be bery angry!

Well, its a good thing that it was only a joke, but I believe I would take that friend and have a good talking to with him/her.
