Well of course there were no fatalities. You don't die when you call the number, you die when the number calls you.

This sort of irresponsible reporting is going to get people killed.

Haha

Dutch wiki says 70.8% ?

English wiki says 45%(2010).

I'd love to speak to a person who thought this was possible.

Good luck trying to reason with people that think chain letters and shit are real.

Hahaha what a wonderful contrast. On one hand they have cell phones, on the other hand they believe in witchcraft and curses.

you better not be religious or it sounds hypocritical hehe

A call to the number Thursday resulted in no fatalities.

Errr....isn't the rumor that death is caused after RECEIVING the call? I understand what they were trying to accomplish but they should have asked the number to call them just for completeness.

 

[QuantumBro]

So it's basically this in real life...

I wonder if they were given the chance to give their credit card info to the caller to be sparred.

Man, with that message the government was really phoning it in

Naija land never dissapionts, lol. Crazy shit like this always happens, one thing i am proud to say about my country though is that they have paid of all their debt as of last year. I sincerly hope they start rebuilding the country, a crazy rich country that is overrun by assholes.
