Monkey say what?
Saturday, October 07, 2006
Just in time for Halloween, practical jokesters at MonkeyDoo have harnessed the power of voip internet phone and video calling to create customized prank calls you can send to your friends. Inspired by the horror movie The Ring, subscribers fill out a form containing their intended victim's cell phone number, some personal tidbit of information about that person and a message to send.
The Ring prank V1. sends a text message to the US or Canadian cell number of your choice, while V.2 sends a voip voice call to either a cell number or landline. There are 24 male and female voices available in a range of accents, including: Spanish, American or UK English, Italian, French Canadian, German, and a number of "character" voices. Each voice selection can be further modified by changing its speed, pitch, and adding special effects.
Members are limited to a total of three free pranks per day and according to the terms of service, "all information is logged for security purposes." If you attempt to use this service to send vulgar or threatening messages, or if you're caught using proxies to avoid identification, your IP (including any proxies) will be summarily banned from the system and your information will be turned over to the relevant authorities.
