Can I get arrested for prank calling?

I prank called a couple of my friends and they have no idea who I'm. They threatened to report me to the police. I called them through an iPhone app called "MagicJack". The number is fake and had an area code from Florida. Can the number be tracked to my location?

Their caller id might still display your real phome number

Jeez, grow up instead of playing childish little games like that. Everything through the internet can be tracked, its foolish to think it can't.

I do not think that you will be arrested, usually they will need a signed letter from District Attorney before they give up your info (the spoof calling company) also, it depends what exactly have you said - how offensive were you? I do not think that you shall worry about this, it is better to use automated prank calls in the future, e.g. https://myphonerobot.com

You can get arrested for making normal, everyday phone calls as well. Grow the hell up and learn to use the phone responsibly.

  • I'm asking for a friend. She was paying for her adult sons iPhone 7 Plus device on the sprint network and he got arrested for hitting her? And is no longer allowed in the house. Long story short the police managed to confiscate the iPhone and gave it to her before he was arrested. She now wants to give the phone to her other son, and doubts her arrested son will comply with giving her the passcode. Is there anyway sprint would erase the phone for her so it's like a brand new phone? Or is the son legally supposed to give her the passcode? Anything we can do or is the phone useless.
  • I bought a stolen Iphone 6s, will I be arrested? I bought a stolen iphone 6s that is not IMEI blocked or anything because the guy stole it from the store. I was wondering if i use it will it be all on me as the theif? The phone is brand new never set up and now its activated under me. Will his company find the phone, IMEI block it and track me down? He is my friend and he stole it, I did not encourage him in anyway but he sold it to me and now I'm very scared
  • Could I get arrested for unlocking? I was given a iPhone 4S and I want to know if I could be arrested for jailbreaking it and then unlocking it.
