7. The Rejection Hotline: 605-477-3018
If you call this number, this is perhaps the funniest phone call you will ever make. Or depending on who gave it to you, the most soul-crushingly tragic.
This number is perfect for anyone you want to reject in dramatic fashion. If someone asks for your number and you’re not interested, give them this one instead.
You will be greeted with a reality slap to the face that sets the stage for what’s to come: “Hello, this is NOT the person you were trying to call…You’ve reached the Rejection Hotline because the person who gave you this number did NOT want you to have their REAL number…”
It then goes on to get very specific and very blunt. This is not an easy rejection. It is a full-scale annihilation. Use with caution or on an April Fool’s Day for the ages.
8. Hogwarts Hotline: 781-452-4077
The Hogwarts Hotline is the perfect random number to send to any fan of Harry Potter.

Stay until the end for a special Muggle alert that really rounds out the experience.
9. Outsource Your Friendship to India: 631-960-7169
Similar to the rejection hotline, this number is perfect to give to anyone you really don’t want to talk to. They will be greeted by this lovely voicemail: “Hello, caller. Your lovely friend has given you this number because he or she has decided to outsource your friendship to India.” You will have made a new friend, just not the one you were expecting.
10. Surfer Boy Pizza from Stranger Things: 805-457-4992
For fans of Netflix’s Stranger Things, this number is an ideal prank call. You will be greeted with a typical pizza restaurant response that may even convince someone who doesn’t know the show to respond. It does seem legit at first. But by the end, you’ll realize you’ve been pranked.
