I told someone I worked for Microsoft on Xbox Live once, said person still believes it's true and often sends me messages asking me to ban someone on XBL.

I do it on a regular basis actually when I'm drunk.

Being in Denmark means that not everybody can tell when english is 'proper' nor identify different accents.

So I've been a Canadian tourist, a british exchange student, a drunken russian security guard (During the G20 climate meeting) and everything in between.

Only in TF2... As a Spy... In Real Life, I haven't been able to deceive people. Though I probably don't wanna, what with it being illegal and all.

I've never pretended to be someone else, I have however convinced two people that one of them didn't exist.

Basically on my college course we had two girls, Meg and Natalie, they were inseparable and were always side by side.

One day I decided Natalie didn't exist, so I started telling everyone to ask Meg why she was talking to herself and when she replies 'I'm talking to Natalie' that they respond 'Who's Natalie?'

Everyone was more than up for this and within about half an hour, I had not only Meg questioning Natalie's existence, but Natalie wasn't sure if she existed either...

I passed my course with very favourable marks, but I still consider this my greatest achievement within the course.

I've convinced people I'm a Russian called Pavlov, before. Not tough, given how few people speak Russian in the UK. I could be speaking utter gibberish and just affix "ski" to the ends of words...

I've done this once before, the trick is to constantly move around the room and try to talk to groups so that people who you've talked to before don't come over.

I think i managed to be about 6 people that night...
-A Scottsman called Duncan
-A South African called Dom
-A German called Adolf (that one was fun, and the people i talked to were incredibly stupid)
-An American who didn't have a name because nobody asked.
-An Australian called Eugene
- And myself.

It ended with A person from the Australian group talking to me and my friend, bastard outed me.

I once convinced a kid I was looking after at work I was god using the intercom while he was in the doorway and really shit him up.

I'm thinking of attempting a similar thing, theres a kid who lives next door who turned two a few weeks ago and has recently learnt to talk. For about a year and a half he would wake me up every morning around 3:30 screaming and crying (i know he's a baby but i was getting less sleep than his parents). I recently learned that his room is directly next to mine. So as payback im thinking of speaking to him through the wall and seeing what his reaction is.

Yeah do it!

Mental cruelty is by far the most effective means of child abuse. Hard to prove too.

I've convinced multiple people over the phone that I'm one of the women that I work with. People will call the phone in the middle of our work area and I'll just answer it "Hello, this is (Insert girls name here), how can I help you?" No one ever seems to question why she sounds like a man, or the fact that her accent is mysteriously absent.
