Do you ever get the urge to laugh at your friends’ expense? Do you like to take advantage of your less tech-savvy family members? If you\u2019re a born trickster with nerdy interests, you can use these websites to fool your friends and prank someone into believing all manner of crazy things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We think these are the best prank websites to get a laugh out of those closest to you. Just don\u2019t complain when you aren\u2019t invited to parties anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n

1. Hacker Typer<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve all seen hackers<\/a> in movies go at their keyboards while streams of gibberish code run down the screen as they race against the clock. It\u2019s all very dramatic, but nothing like the somewhat tedious hacking process in the real world.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Hacker<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

That doesn\u2019t mean your friends know that! The only \u201chacking\u201d they\u2019ve ever seen probably comes from TV and film, so why not fool them into believing you\u2019re a \u201c1337 H4x0r\u201d with this awesome website. It\u2019s a hacking simulator where you can just bash random keys like a movie hacker, and \u201ccode\u201d appears on the screen that looks like the real deal. Even a few \u201caccess denied\u201d popups show off some of that hacker edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. GeekTyper<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

GeekTyper is pretty much the same thing as Hacker Type, but a little more sophisticated. It takes a little longer to set up but offers several different themes and even simulated desktops with fake windows.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"GeekTyper<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Hacker Type is excellent when you want to set up the prank in seconds, but GeekTyper is a little more fun if you have the time to ready it before your victim arrives. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re going to a lecture; you can set up GeekTyper with the look you want and then open your laptop in class and start \u201chacking\u201d in front of all the people sitting behind you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. WhatsApp Fake Chat<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This website lets you create fake WhatsApp<\/a> chats to fool your friends in many ways. The site is truly comprehensive, letting you adjust every aspect of the \u201cscreen capture\u201d to match the exact details of the person whose account you\u2019re trying to replicate.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"WhatsApp<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

This can be a very dangerous tool in the wrong hands, so make sure you use it responsibly and don\u2019t actually cause actual harm. If you don\u2019t want to use a website but prefer an app, WhatsFake for Android is an alternative. You can try Prank<\/a> as an iOS equivalent if you have an iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Prank Me Not Fake Facebook Status Generator<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Prank<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Just like the fake Whatsapp message generators mentioned above, this tool lets you construct a Facebook post that looks like a real one. So you can fake someone saying something that never actually happened. This is another prank you can do real damage with, so use it responsibly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Peter Answers<\/a> is Still Creepy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This classic amazing prank has a simple trick behind it, but it\u2019s still capable of freaking out anyone who doesn\u2019t know the scam. \u201cPeter\u201d is a mind-reader and fortune teller, but you, as the prankster, feed him all the information he needs to give scarily accurate answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need to be the one in control of the keyboard for the prank to work. If your friend tries to use it, they\u2019ll just get cryptic answers about not having enough desire or willpower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To get an answer from Peter, you must petition him with the phrase \u201cPeter please answer the following question.\u201d This is where you feed the answer he\u2019ll give.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Peter<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

First, ask your target what question they want to ask. Then click on the petition field and put a period as the first character. This will activate the prank. Now type in the answer you want Peter to give and then fill in the rest of the field with periods until the whole petition question is filled out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter what you type after putting in a period, it will simply write the petition. The tricky part is completing the field with periods without your mark noticing you\u2019re tapping the same key, so you\u2019ll have to be a good actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then type in the question, ask for the answer, press Enter, and try not to laugh as your target\u2019s jaw drops open!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. FartScrollJS<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fart noises are funny in any situation. Well, maybe not at a funeral, but anywhere else, they\u2019re always good for a laugh. FartScroll gives you website code snippets that you can paste into your own website, making it play fart sounds when someone scrolls the page.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"FartScrollJS<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t have a website of your own to prank your friend with, you\u2019ll also find browser plugins of FartScroll here, so you can install them on someone\u2019s computer and give them the joy of farts no matter which site they visit. Sadly, it seems the Chrome Extension is gone, but there are alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANNoy Distractions<\/a> is a Chrome extension that does add farting sounds to scrolling, along with a few other annoyances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Update Faker<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nobody likes to be interrupted by Apple macOS or Windows updates, but what they\u2019ll really <\/em>hate is a fake update! If your target leaves their computer unattended, open this website in their web browser, pick the right operating system to fake, and then make the web page full-screen to complete the illusion of an actual update screen.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Update<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

It will look like a system update has started when they come back. Obviously, they\u2019ll wait because you\u2019re not meant to interrupt a system update. The fun part is to see how much of their time you can waste before they give up and simply reboot the computer. Although, you probably want to be long gone before they figure it out. This one can destroy friendships!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. The Awesome Prank Extension<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

This Chrome extension is the Swiss Army Knife of pranks and even comes with fart scrolling as part of the selection. There are 18 hilarious pranks in total and, once you\u2019ve installed the extension, you can activate it and choose the prank you want to implement on the current page. Then walk away and wait for your target to suffer the specific indignity you\u2019ve selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Love Calculator Prank<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Love<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

This prank is excellent if you want to find out who your friend (or crush) has romantic feelings for. You\u2019ll get a link to send to a friend\u2019s phone, pretending to be a site that calculates compatibility based on two people\u2019s names. If they fall for it, they\u2019ll put their crush\u2019s name into the \u201ccalculator,\u201d and that name will be sent straight to you. The site immediately tells your target that they\u2019ve been pranked, so there\u2019s no way to use it in secret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Shady URL<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This site is a bit like a regular URL shortener, and it really has a shortening function. Still, it takes your perfectly normal URLs and turns them into something no self-respecting geek would ever click on for fear of making their computer burst into flames.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Shady<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

It\u2019s a great way to make people think you\u2019ve been hacked or that you\u2019ve accidentally shared a link to something from your (very) private life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. The Google Terminal<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Google Terminal isn\u2019t exactly a prank, at least not by design. Its creators made it as an official Google Easter Egg to show what the search engine might have looked like in the 80s.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"The<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

You can use it to prank people into thinking Google actually existed in the 80s, though! It\u2019s even better since this is a somewhat interactive demo, but you can simply take screenshots as \u201cevidence\u201d that Google was around back then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12 & 13 Instructables<\/a> & WikiHow<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You may not think of helpful sites such as Instructables or WikiHow as troll websites or cool prank websites, but they are filled with prank ideas and instructions. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"12<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

They\u2019re especially great if you want pranks that go beyond something that happens on a computer. If you want to go old-school with your pranks, you\u2019ll find all the information you need there. From quick pranks to pull in the office on your co-workers to scary pranks that are perfect for the next time Halloween comes around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
