Is this a prank, what to do?

I was about to fall asleep when I get a txt saying who is this. I say my first name and ask who it is. they give me there first name and ask jordan (me) who. I stupidly give out my last name thinking its one of my friends. they tell me they’re name is Alyssa Ferguson. they ask if my middle name was _. and it was so I said do I know you? they said do I know you? I said obviously seeing how you know my middle name. they go and say “dont be scared”, “I have a gun”, “and a knife”

I went and told my parents and they just said dont reply to anything its probably just someone pranking you.

they called me and left me a voicemail saying “hey call me back. its an emergency”

what should I do?

Answer #1

It could be someone pulling a stupid prank on you, if its such an emergency I’m sure they know how to dial 9-1-1. So just leave it.

Answer #2

call the number back from your phone and put in *67 before the number - that will block the number that your calling from. then see if you recognize the voice - if its a woman (maybe your bros friends mom) then ask for your bro or his friend and see if they answer

Answer #3

call them back and prank them…most likely a prankster…if it were me, I would probably call back and say something like, “This better be important, my mother is about to have a baby,” or something equally stupid…see what their reply to that is.
