So last night i was hanging out with my pals, ya know, normal friday night. Around 1130 or so, i get a call from a "restricted number." So i'm all, oh great a bunch 7th graders attempting to prank call me so they can go to school the next week and brag about how they messed with high schoolers. I answer so i can troll them so hard, but instead of whiny pre pubescent voices i begin to hear an automated voice. The voice begins with something along the lines of, "Hello. You have been contacted by the RAAA for the illegal downloading of music" or something like that. I listen for a bout 10 seconds and freak out. Not too long ago, some guy was being sued about $25,000+ PER SONG he downloaded. (probably not the exact price, but it was a lot). So this is where the scary part happens. Over the course of a few months, I may or may not have downloaded a movie, maybe 50 songs, and Final Cut Pro X. So the other day i go to my computer to start editing my season edit. FCPX is gone. Like you know when you click on an icon on mac and the little question mark appears on top of it? That's what happened. Same with my UTorrent app. So that's why i was super freaked out. First my downloaded apps were acting up, then i get a strange call directly relating to my previous actions. I was scared out of my mind.

Turns out it was all a prank call. First of all, a restricted phone call at 1130? Most likely a bunch of loser middle schoolers. Also, i noticed it said "the RAAA." This is a made up acronym that is a parody of the RIAA, which is like the MPAA for music. I also found that it was just an audio recording on some prank calls website where you enter the victim's phone number.

Sparknotes: Get sketchy call about music piracy and freak out, only to realize i just got prank called.

So NS, let's hear your best prank call stories
 
i hate to break it to you but the reason you final cut pro stopped working is because well....you have aids
 
I used to get people who would call me all the damn time thinking I was a "Jamal" and they would try to prank him by saying "yo this is the KKK im gonna come lynch yo ass nigga" and crazy stuff like that, and of course I was like .......... this is not Jamal. They did it for a month or so though, every night, late. Eventually they would stop and be like "aw comon Jamal im just fuckin witcha nigga" and my response would be............ Then they would hang up.

cool

So ur with ur honey and yur making out wen the phone rigns. U anser it n the vioce is “wut r u doing wit my daughter?” U tell ur girl n she say “my dad is ded”. THEN WHO WAS PHONE?
 
yep. i have no idea what happened to it. My friend told me apple does vigilante type stuff like deleting the apps for you without you knowing before they get the law involved
 
Yea, a bunch of unlucky people have gotten fined a lot of money for illegal downloads, but its usually in combination with something else they have done so usually your safe.

 
I have downloaded way too much shit from the pirate bay, but here in canada, shits pretty loose, so im ghood.
 
when i get restricted calls, i pick up and say "hello, you have reached 1-800-ASS-FUCK, your number one hotline for hot steamy men who will do whatever you say..." they usually hang up by then but if not i go through what pressing each number does. I haven't had a prank call in a while and i blame that on this strategy
 
You really only have to worry about piracy when you start distributing out the things you download or start selling them illegally. Or if you are running a professional business using pirated software/music.If I were you I would have totally shit my pants with all of the stuff I've pirated.
