I used to work for a company providing Relay services. These type of calls made our shifts horrible. I hated doing them, I was a billingual operator. I would enjoy bothering the people that make these dumb calls. It's such a waste of time and they are trying to get some of these call prosecuted since relay is monitored by the FCC.

I know some forums that got in big crap for doing this also. The forums got screwed hard and banned tons of people.

ya, it was done with a free voicemail service by a bunch of friends

you give them the number, then type up what you want them to say. We had them tell it to the voicemail so we could pull the .wavs off and post the stuff.
