Idea for a Scam

Here is an idea for a variation on one of those premium phone number scams:

  • Register a premium phone number, one of those super expensive ones where you set the price – €99 per minute or however high the phone company allows you to go
  • Print the number onto a “How am I driving?” sticker and stick it on the back of your white van/SUV/small truck.
  • Drive like a lunatic for a few days – undertaking people in the hard shoulder, driving 30mph in the fast lane, randomly slamming on the breaks, etc.
  • Record all phone calls and make a compilation CD in time for Christmas
