Since 2006, the Fonejacker has been making people laugh through its groundbreaking approach to prank calls, and society’s obsession with call centers. Though a full series of its own did not appear in Britain until a year after its debut, the worldwide phenomenon continues to grow.

Created by, and showcasing the multi-personality talents of Kayvan Novak, unsolicited phone calls are placed to members of the public, and those just working away in their daily lives. With hilarious scripts, the laughter is almost unstoppable and you find it hard to control yourself.

The main protagonist of the calls is the Fonejacker himself. Looking somewhat like a terrorist who has fallen on rough times, the image of his homemade balaclava and sunglasses just add to the whole effect.

But it is in the characters that the Fonejacker assumes to place his calls that the real fun starts.

An immensely popular and outrageously funny character is the wannabe scam artist from somewhere in Africa; George Agdgdgwngo. Playing up to the real life con artists that try to con us out of money, George just can’t seem to get there.

Trying to scam people out of their bank details, claiming he will wire their eighty pounds of winnings immediately, doesn’t quite cut it. Nor does his tales of a bird stuck in the bank vault do much to convince people to part with their account numbers. It is simply riotous as he fails, but remains so polite and apologetic.

Equally as much fun for the viewer is the caller from Indian call center Internet Service Providings; yes, with the “S” at the end for effect! That the young worker is not particularly confident, nor has a good product to sell is sure to be familiar to many.

Whilst the offers he gives are said to be market leading; explaining the deal for a better ISP, mobile phone, or even dating site membership do not quite hold water. The prices are extreme and the benefits all but nonexistent. Irate callers get put through to the manager, where the Fonejacker hilarity just gets more increased.

There are more than 20 characters played in the Fonejacker; all as good as the next. When you watch, look out for the mouse which takes the whole concept to another level. Superb!
