"The Downing Street switchboard was at meltdown point last week after thousands of callers were duped into phoning the Prime Minister's number.According to reports, a hoaxer sent an SMS to thousands of mobile phone users with the urgent message: "Hi, mate, phone me ASAP, crap signal in this pub. If I don't answer; ask for Tony who runs the place." The number given went straight through to the Number 10 switchboard, and a spokeswoman said that 80% of the calls coming in were a result of the prank. As a result Downing Street was forced to have another private line installed." |

It wouldn't work so well, no-one would believe it. Incidentally, the one I recieved said: "Hi mate, I need your help, in a spot of bother, no signal. Call me on 0207 930 4832. If I don't answer, ask Elizabeth or Phil for me" Sigh. Who thinks these things up...? |

There was a similar one for buckingham palace (but ask for liz or phil etc)... Most ridiculous... Call 0207 930 4832 for the answer machine at the palace telling us all politely to fck off. |
