Anon is legion.

But he could still say that it was still cyberbullying so IDK what will happen.

Only one way to check: find another unsuspecting kid and tell him I'm buying boats with his dad's money, see how he reacts.


Dude u need to chillax, the worst possible thing that can happen is that you get banned from the vent server, seriously grow a pair.

In the Good Ol' USA, a country made by lawyers for lawyers, whether or not you'd get in trouble for this sort depends on how good your lawyer is and how reasonable the judge is. Potentially you could get in deep shit. Or potentially it could get laughed out of court. That's just the way these things go.

In Estonia, noone cares about the internet.
You would probably get a verbal warning. Worst scenario - a small fine.
Unless people screen-record the whole thing with audio, they have no proof. Your word against his.

Either that or absolutely nothing will come of it...but I'm pretty sure you'll get hanged.

she should have sucked it up and took it like a man, lawsuits are for wimps

Btw, if you ever want to do it again, I'd suggest making the two middle numbers 00, or else you'll be using a real SSN.
Although I wouldn't suggest it, someone might actually say something.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

if im using a kitchen knife to cut potatoes and i accidentally cut myself, im not gonna sue the knife manufacturer, im gonna tell myself to be more careful so it wont happen next time.
if i slip and fall down the stairs, im gonna tell myself to be more careful so it wont happen next time.
if i eat some food that i got at the grocery store and i get food poisoning, im gonna suck it up cuz it's ridiculous to sue the grocery store.

these examples are less extreme, but they show that it's not only McDonald's' fault for making the coffee hotter than normal. she wasn't being responsible either. her compensation was astronomical for what she suffered.

Yes, I think that's 1 good way to settle it.
If you have to ask, you don't know.

True that. Look at all those boats in your backyard!

maybe i could just get the boats from the kid's father if they're rich and cut out the middleman

Side note for the topic, I AM repeating this prank, and I've learned that I should be safe as long as he doesn't go in with video capturing, and I assure him that I do not have his personal information for the purchase of nautical vehicles.

EDIT: And if I were buying a boat, the dad should actually get a phone call asking for confirmation of the purchase. So I would actually be screwed there.

Also, the sig.

lol, this was epic! congratulations on scaring the shit out of an fps doucheling. i highly doubt anything would come of it, as he's being a dumbass and you're both young, but don't go making that your day job (god, i wish that could be a day job).
How's the weather down there?
