With each passing year, it becomes increasingly difficult to pull off an April Fool’s joke that people will actually believe. There still is one way to fool even the most skeptical prank target, however. Read about how technology is the final frontier for 2014 April Fool’s pranks and beyond.

Let’s face it — the April Fool’s joke is old. And rightly so: April Fool’s, while not an official or national holiday, is in our blood. Historians believe that the celebration of the day might date back as far as 1392, when the notion of April 1st as a day of pranking others is ambiguously referenced by English author Geoffrey Chaucer in his famous Canterbury Tales.

Considering that the April fool’s “holiday” may be older than 500 years, it’s no wonder that our cynical world has grown wary of anything too out of the ordinary that takes place on April 1st. The only possibility of really fooling someone on that day is if their busy and stressed enough to have forgotten the day altogether.

However, if you’re looking to pull off a lasting April Fool’s joke, it is still possible. Thanks to modern technology, you can weave a web of illusion that will be so plausible that even the most distrusting among us will believe it as true.

How Spoof Calling Can Fuel The Greatest April Fool’s Joke Ever

One of the reasons why it is so hard to pull off pranks is the advent of the caller I.D. Now that call recipients have advance word on who is calling them, it’s very difficult to portray yourself as someone or something that you are not. However, thanks to modern technology, it is now possible to fool caller I.D.s — and by doing so, open up a wealth of new pranking opportunities for April Fool’s Day.

Simply put, call spoofing allows you to change the telephone number that displays on a caller I.D., even if the call is made from a smartphone or landline that your April Fool’s target is familiar with. There are several different technologies that enable this illusion, however, the technology used at MyPhoneRobot is completely telephonic, meaning that the phone call that your target receives is not through the internet. It is a crisp, normal-sounding call like any other — only the telephone number is altered.
