What started as a harmless prank turned into a free goodie bag for this prankster.
Tech savvy 18-year-old Blake Messick took advantage of his neighbour’s unsecured wireless printer, and played an epic prank on him by pretending to be a talking printer.
He cheekily tweeted this message:

His not-so-tech-savvy neighbour understandably got the fright of his life, and promptly threw out his printer along with the garbage, which Messick spotted.

Messick picked up the printer, and it now sits at his place.

While his followers enjoyed the prank, they also wondered if he eventually confessed to his prank.
There is, however, no word on that front.
