Recently in the D.C. area there's been a rash of Spanish only calls coming from Tennessee.
I finally got one and had a coworker translate it...apparently it's an ad for knockoff viagra telling you how big this guys dick got using it.
I get that shit enough in my email, now I get 'V i A gR@ 4 BiG P e N i S' spam in a foreign language on my cell...what dumbshit thought that would sell?

I once was left a voicemail from a restricted number at like 4am on a weekday. It started off with an oddly pitched up clip of "I touch myself" followed by somebody very drunk singing the chorus. I couldn't tell if it was a guy or a girl by the way they were singing it, it was bizarre.
one time i had an unknown number call and leave "mully, i love you" followed by some crazy ass love song i'd never heard before
i still have no idea who that was
it was in 2003
a funny one though
when i lived with my dad
we got a prank call.. except.. it backfired..
my dad walks in, hands me the phone and goes "its for you. think its shawna."
i put my ear to the phone and hear 2 giggling girls,
"is this the red haired midget?"
"....what?"
"we asked for a red haired midget and it was supposed to be funny but the man told us that there WAS a red haired midget"
...i had flaming red hair at the time and was 5'3".. so my dad assumed it was just someone asking for me cleverly. sigh.

The other day someone called my friends phone and was asking for someone named Tien Tran or something. It was obviously the wrong number. The conversation went like this:
"Hello"
"Hello, is Tien Tran there?"
"HURRO DIS TIN TRAN."
"What?"
"I TIN TRAN WHATCHOO NEED?"
At this point the guy hung up. I think he figured out it was a wrong number.
About a year ago, someone left me a voice mail singing a song from "Behind the looking glass" that goes something like this (Cap words=absolute insane screaming on the voicemail):
"Alice in WONDERLAND,
Close your eyes and TAKE MY HAND.
You'll find your WOOOOONNDERLAND
is just a dreeeeeeeeeam AWAAAY"
No idea who it was, or if it was male or female. I wish I saved it though.
"HELLO!? JOHN?! ITS MARGRET! THERES SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR VOICEMAIL MESSAGE, ITS SLOWED DOWN LIKE, 'JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHN' (My message was me saying my name like this 'Seaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan') ANYWAYS IM HEADING OVER TO COSTCO TO GET NEW TIRES FOR THE TRUCK, I NEED YOU TO MEET ME THERE CALL MY BACK K THX LOVE YA!"
That's word for word and yes, she was fucking yelling the entire time.
The weird thing is, she was calling from a 925 area code, my area code, heading to costco, the same costco, the only costco in our area, that I was working at as she called me. I was on my break, and maybe if she had said what kind of car she had driven I might have seen her drive up.
I used to get calls from some lady in Arizona, talking about someone else's kids, how horrible they are, and how I need to come pick them up right now, why won't you return my calls.
Good stuff.

this should probably go in a prank calling thread but I never get weird voicemails
one time at gamestop a guy called and asked "do you guys have the game pussy control"
and I was like "yes, what system would you like it on"

Back in high school when I worked at Blockbuster, some kids kept calling and asking for a pizza delivery, then laughing hysterically and hanging up. Lamest prank call ever.

the first few times I got pranked at gamestop, I got all flustered and was like "you are so dumb" and hung up
but then I learned to fuck with them back, it's much more satisfying

This one day, back when I worked at the print shop, I walked in the door one day, hung up my jacket and answered the phone that was ringing off the hook.
"Copy & Print, this is Rank. What can I do for you?"
"Heyyyy, um, are you those guys in Mount Vernon?"
"Yes sir, we're in Mount Vernon."
"Yeahhhh, the ones over on Riverside, right?"
"Yes sir, that's us."
"Yeah, the ones next tooooo, that one place, right, the one that sells, you know..."
"Heh. Yes sir, that's us."
"What's the name of that place?"
"Lover's Package?"
"Yeah, that's it. Thanks."
*click*
I knew it was going to be a strange day after that.

Man, I don't get pranked at my store. Probably because anyone under 20 dumb enough to prank call us around here is too busy training to become an alcoholic.
but then I learned to fuck them back, it's much more satisfying

:oops:

sorry geez i'm not a good reader
also, i've never been prank phonecalled, and i've only gotten one unusual message. it was from a woman to what sounded like her son, with all sorts of instructions on what medicines to give grandma at what time and like 5 different emergency numbers.

Not quite a voicemail, but in the same vein. I was walking around downtown Seattle, towards the convention center during PAX and I started picking up some voice on our two-way radio. Some guy on the highway, and I'm only hearing one side of the conversation. He's trying to get directions somewhere. I told him he needs to be on I-5 Southbound, he said he was and asked what exit to get off on, I told him 14. Later on, talking to a few people, I was informed that I sent the guy to 14 miles away from the Oregon border.
I got prank called at work by some drunk asshole who started reciting that Tenacious D skit where they go to the drive-thru. He's like "I need a four piece chicken mcnugget." I was like "So, you guys like Tenacious D?" <pause> "Stick two of them up your ass and give me four chicken mcnuggets!" "Yeah this is the most unoriginal prank call I've ever gotten." <pause> "I need a coke but half diet coke! I'm trying to watch my weight here." "Listen, buck, I'm going to hang up now, and you're not going to call back."
And that was it. End o' story. Lamest fucking prank call ever.
When I get obvious prank phone calls, people are usually just asking
"Hey, do you guys have (something stupid and uncleaver) in stock?" with giggling and stuff on the phone.
I usually just say "Yeah sure one second" and just leave the phone off the hook and time how long it takes them to realize that I'm not going to talk to them any further.
Unfortunately our BES server won't allow texting or I would've done something to that effect. And they called using Skype or something cause the number came up as 123456789
There was a weird semester where my voice mail from one person wasn't showing up until weeks later. Like, I'd get a message saying I had a new message and then it would be all "Thursday, February 5th" and it would be in the middle of April.
Most of his messages were telling me he couldn't do rehearsals that day so don't bother driving all the way out there
For the past month I've been getting about 6 calls a day on my cell phone. The number is 0-000-000 and it always, always leaves a voicemail message. The message is a recording of a woman's voice reading a telephone number, but it starts halfway through.
So it sounds like this:
"You have 6 unheard messages. First unheard message:
Hundred, four five zero six.
End of message. Next unheard message:
Hundred, four five zero six."
And so on and so forth, day after day, week after week. One day I snapped and actually answered the fucking thing. I heard ringing, as if I had dialed someone, and then a man answered. "Hello?" He didn't know anything about it.

"Hello?"
"Hello, Brian? This is grandma!"
"Um... I'm sorry, I'm not Brian. I think you have the wrong number."
"Brian? It's grandma!"
"I'm sorry, this isn't Brian. You have the wrong number."
"Brian? I recognize your voice! This is grandma!"
So I just finally hung up the phone.
"Hello. This is ABC beans. We sell all kinds of beans. Please leave your payment in salsa."
i still have no idea who that was

hey fuckhole maybe you know your phone number by heart and say it 5 times a day but I don't...
"Hello"
"Hello, is Tien Tran there?"
"HURRO DIS TIN TRAN."
"What?"
"I TIN TRAN WHATCHOO NEED?"
At this point the guy hung up. I think he figured out it was a wrong number.
"Alice in WONDERLAND,

Check out my art! Buy some prints!
No, you have the wrong number.
Oh, sorry about that, bye!
*rings my phone again*
Fuck it, it's going to voicemail.
*You have one new message!*
"HELLO!? JOHN?! ITS MARGRET!

do you even work in fast food
"Hey, do you guys have (something stupid and uncleaver) in stock?" with giggling and stuff on the phone.
I usually just say "Yeah sure one second" and just leave the phone off the hook and time how long it takes them to realize that I'm not going to talk to them any further.
"Hey, I want that game where you kill [derogatory term for African American fellow] and [Unkind phraseology for a person of the Hispanic persuasion]"
"Excuse me?"
"Yo, the one where you kill [Negroes] and [Latinos]"
"Oh, GTA. Yeah we've got a bunch of copies, but we're sure as fuck not going to sell'em to you buddy."
i dont know a crystal
and shes talking super fast so i can't tell what the fuck she said
she also said the right name
I also used to get texts from some guy telling his "Boba" that he is going to some fastfood restaurant.
I'm like what, I don't know what you're talking about.
"fuck you, you know godamn well what I'm talking about, you backed into my motorcycle with your truck, I got the number right off the side"
"well I don't drive a truck, but if I did I wouldn't have this number on the side"
"fuck you bullshit motherfucker asshole I'm coming over right now to kick your fucking ass"
"fine come on over motherfucker! but you better bring a gun because I'll be waiting with my shotgun"
"ARGGHG FUCK YOU I'M COMING TO KILL YOU ARGHG MOTHERFUCKER" and he hung up.
never heard from him again... have no idea if it was a prank or if he went over to some poor guy's house and beat the living shit outta him...
