New Service from Sprint Helps You Lie
MobileFaker (MF for short) is a collection of services that turn your cellphone into an anti-dork concussion grenade, utilizing tools like a fake ring, becuase you have to “take this call, sorry pal!” and a fake phone number to give that bill collector, as well as a cache of pick-up lines (oh, noooo) and a false breathalizer (what!?), just to name a few.
While it’s short of having a phony “alien” scanner, these tools walk the line between goofy and scandalous, but what’s really interesting is that it’s far and away different than any other services offered by Sprint, or anyone else. Hopefully, it’s the start of a trend that will actually make phones useful to most Americans for more than phone calls, and will raise revenues for carriers.
