I was sitting here earlier thinking about what it'd be like for the whole town I live in to be in total chaos. I wondered how easy it would be for someone to make it all happen, and it hit me; bomb threats. Do you think it would be possible to get about 20 numbers of top supermarkets/malls and goto a payphone with a mask on (cameras) and call them and say somethin' like "There is a bomb in your building. It is going to go off in thirty minutes."? I'd pay to see it.

It could be easily done. If you wear gloves while handling the payphone, and select a payphone far far away from your home, it can't be traced.

Also, you could put sodium chlorate and sugar in dust bins, all over the town ,so when the dust bin men come and crush the trash they will react and set the truck alight!

Then start massive riots, begin looting, and reek havoc all over!!

Muahahahaha!

You know how everyone finds a cell phone now and then right? well why dont you just clean the phone call in a threat and throw the phone in a feild or some shit make shure the phone doesnt have your prints or anything like that on it......Would this work?

HIT BONGS NOT KITTENS

Calling from a pay phone isnt the smartest thing ever. Just about anyone can trace a call from one.

To you, and all the other 10 year olds around here, it sounds like a good idea, but unless you want to be bubbas new biotch, I suggest you go back to trading pokemon cards, or whatever is popular among you kids these days.

Purely out of curiosity...

How are they going to figure out it was you if you left no prints or other traces around the phone?

Small town... "I saw little johnny making phone calls around that time"

Better off with a cell phone. Doesn't even have to be paid for if you call 911... just don't do it in your area if its clone/gsm hack.

response: how will they get you? Pay phones are MONITORED usually by an real OPERATOR and they will call the COPS real quick. You had beter spend no more than two minutes in the area or you WILL GET BUSTED. You may think that pay phones are operated by computer... they are... OPERATED, but a HUMAN DOES MONITOR the phone. OK, so they may have one person monitoring ten phones, but I suggest the cell phone thing. and turn it off when you're done. if it's on, they can find it. Oh, and can you be more creative than a bonb threat?

HELL NO!!!! DONT DO ANY BOMB THREATS!!! EVER!

My friend found an abandoned cell phone, with no service, but you could still call 911. He called in two bomb threats to the school. The first one, seemed to go off fine. His second one was traced using triangality(or something like that, im tired) and he was caught. I don't know how he did it, but it was when he was driving to school.

He left us for a year to boarding school. He just came back and he said it was a fucking living hell, he tells us stories every day. He said it was definately NOT worth it.

Don't do it, I swear to it, don't, it will fuck your life up.

(He got charged with two felonies and a $20,000 fine for both threats.)

Another idea... I always thought of getting some white play-do, making a large square, and wrapping it with brown-paper bag. Then taking an old watch apart to get a blinking LED on it and an antennae and some other wires and stuff around it to make it look all technichal and stuff, as if it where a c4 bomb or plastic explosive...



put this in a school bathroom: the school will be evacuated before the bomb squad gets there, and thats when they will announce that it is fake(after you're evacuated)

and if your school doesnt get the hint... call them up.

Bad Idea.

Calm down, hoss. I didn't even come up with the idea.

Since you pissed me off, I'll go ahead and kill your little argument.

You call in a bomb threat to the school. They pick up. You say "There is a bomb within the schoolgrounds. It's set to go off shortly."... You leave.

Honestly - Do you really believe the operator is going to monitor your phone call, contact the police, track down the payphone, and get there within 30 seconds?

Exactly.

Do you people actually beleive that the government/operator listens in on every call? Hell no! There is not nearly enough resources for them to listen in on each and every call, espicially not a call that is less than a minute, not redboxed, and is local.

Now personally, I would not recommend a payphone for call making. I would rather get a tracphone and simply buy a little air time. Now agreed that this is the more expensive way, it is a hell lot safer. Oh, and make sure you dont get a brand new shiny phone that has GPS enabled E-911 capabilities.

As for payphones, they are also quite safe. Like I mentioned above, most calls are not monitored. Actually, almost all calls are not monitored. If you deposit a coin, make the call to the school, state your bomb threat, and leave, the entire process will be under a minute. As for fingerprints, if you arnt smart enough to figure out how to hide those from the phone, you shouldnt be doing this.

*idea*

Also with payphones, you would want to make the call right after another person, and preferably at a busy payphone that is private, IE a phone booth. Now I dont know if this is smart or not, but it seems good to me. On one hand, people will identify you as being in the correct payphone at the time of the threat. On the other hand, about 20 other people will be there too. Then again, being never spotted by going to a secluded phone has its unique advantages.
