This girl, Abby texted the group chat to tell us something bad happened to our friend Ella, that her mom sent a message saying she collapsed and fainted.

It had been several hours, and Abby said Ella hasn't woken up yet, according to her mother.

I was worried, vented to my family about it, and tried calling her number. It appeared her phone had been turned off.

Later, Ella told me and her BF Michael that it was a prank and that her phone was off because she was on a plane. She was bored and thought no one would care if she was in an actual coma.

I was relieved and Michael was rightfully pissed.

Happened at my school 20ish years ago.

School trip of multiple classes to a neighboring city. So they packed each class into a bus one by one, taking multiple trips.

At some point someone put a piece of paper with "help, rampage kidnapping" into the back window of the bus as a "joke".

It wasn't found out until the next class was on the road and suddenly was surounded by a armored police force
