Okay so I need yalls help! My Grandma got a phone call monday night at like 10:45 and it was a prank call...(Of course they blocked their number so we cant find out who is it) so heres how the convo went (the letters represent the peoples names):
Granny: hello?
Them: Hello, is H there?
Granny: Who is calling?
Them: B
Granny: Who?
Them: B, You might want to take H to the hospital, he gave me aids last night.
Them: (Someone laughing histerically in the background)
Keep in mind "H" is my grandfather and the "B" represents me. Now i'm sorry but that isnt even a cute prank call...my grandmother lives alone most of the time so she was scared to go to bed. But anyways...we have an idea of who it is...me, my mom, and grandmother think it was my brother's friend..lets call him N. and also my brother's other friend...we'll call him J. Now the only reason with think it's N & J is because N is the only friend of my bro who knows my grandpa's name. And I'm sure J was the one who told him to use my name. Now hopefully your still with me LOL. We were trying to think of some clever ways to get them to confess...I think we should do some of these:
1) Sit them down and frankly ask if they did it
2) Ask them if they know how to block your number when you call sumone
3) Ask if they know anything about a prank phone call my grandmom recieved
I'm open to opinions on this so please feel free to come up with some ideas of your own (that was the whole point of this lol) and let me know. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I'll rate high (5) and please, NO SMART-ASSES! Thnkx a mil

I doubt the people who did this will confess; however, you might be able to have a little fun back. The next time you see them, you could talk about a "local case" you heard about where two prank callers were arrested and charged with felony harassment. The charges are adult charges and will likely be fully prosecuted due to the crackdown on crank calling. Even if they don't admit to making this particular call, it might stop them from crank calling in the future. You could also tell your grandmother (and these boys), the next time a crank call is made- she will call the police to sweep the neighborhood (a slow drive through the area looking for troublemakers). Best wishes. [ jb012's advice column | Ask jb012 A Question ]

2) Ask them if they know how to block your number when you call sumone
I know how to block a number, so I'm just as accountable as the people that called your grandma.

It won't let any call through if they have an unlisted number OR if they are blocking their number from showing on caller ID.
I should rephrase that. She can let the call through if they give their name to a recording she gets beforehand.
That may be something your grandma could look into. I really don't think the boys will confess. Even if they do the damage was done.
