There are websites for any kind of need and, from this point of view, there is no shortage of those that allow you to make funny jokes to make you pass as a treacherous hacker.
Even if it's not April 1st, it doesn't mean you can't find a way to play a funny prank on your friends. Thanks to some online services, in fact, it is possible to make our friends or family believe that they are real “computer geniuses”, passing through skilled hackers ready to sabotage who knows which site.
Funny jokes: 5 sites to blow your friends away
If in the past we have taken a look at the apps for making phone pranks, it is still possible to have fun even through real sites. Here are some of the most popular solutions even if, by commenting on this article on our social channels, you can share other similar services with all our readers.
Hacker Typer
With Hacker Typer, you can make your friends think they learned programming from scratch. This joke site will take you to a page with a black background, and as soon as you start typing, all sorts of codes will appear on the screen.
It doesn't matter which keys you press, as the screen will continue to show you the codes which, unless you have real hacker friends, will definitely impress. After a while, the site will display an Access Denied message, making the hacking experience even more real.
Click the settings button at the bottom of the screen to choose a new color, speed, font size, different font, and make other customizations. Any of these options can help make the experience more real, thus deceiving your friends and family more.
Not only that: the last item on the menu, or Become a real hacker, directs the user to some useful links to get real skills regarding computer security.
Fake Update Screen
With Fake Update Screen, you can scare your friends with what looks like an update that will wipe the entire disk or various types of OS updates. The latter option is great for making your friends believe they are transitioning from Windows 10 to Linux, by updating macOS, for example.
When you try to place the cursor on the page, it will disappear. This will cause your friends to panic, thinking they won't be able to stop the process. You can choose from 35 languages in total for more realism.
In the upper left corner you can see where the alleged update is. There is also a Mac option that you can use to prank your friends who own this type of computer. There are a total of 10 options (even if the Windows 98 page appears to have malfunctions) that allow you to customize your joke down to the smallest detail.
Please note: When teasing your friends with this trick, be sure to press F11 (on Windows) or CMD + Control + F (on macOS) to make the browser full screen. This will make the joke site more realistic.
Geek Prank
Among the funny jokes, the site Geek Prank cannot be missing. This is a feature-rich solution on the web, and if you want to prank a friend, it's definitely a great place to start. Whether it's opening the Hacker page to simulate a dangerous password attack or aborting a BIOS update on a Windows computer, you're spoiled for choice.
You can also simulate Windows XP, complete with Internet Explorer 7 or play music on Winamp, for a real journey through time. Then just switch to full screen and you can make a funny joke, as your friends will believe that you loaded the real XP software and that you live two decades in the past.
When you want to take your prank to another level, just load up the Jurassic Park software and make it seem like you can control the cars crossing the park. Alternatively, you can load up the Matrix Rain software and try to convince your friends that the Matrix wasn't just a movie. Don't forget the FBI lock, which has been counting down for 60 minutes waiting for agents to come knocking on your door. In short, there really is material for all tastes.
Shady URL
Whenever a friend sends you a URL, you can try to see what it is by reading a part of it. This way at least you get an idea of what it is. With Shady URL, you can trick your friends into thinking you've sent them some kind of virus or similar devilry. Even a Google URL can be turned into a very suspicious looking one.
For example, if you type www.google.com, you get a URL that says something like http://www.5z8.info/old-older-goats.mov_x4l8fw_ip-stealer. This is sure to make your friend panic and wonder what the hell he just got. If you're looking for a quick and harmless prank, this is definitely a great place to start.
Geek Typer
Geek Typer is a site full of great options when it comes to making your friends believe that you have become a hacker. Through the proposed pages, it will be easy to make everyone think that you are trying to hack a government or corporate website. You can choose from 24 different themes that include the most varied (and more or less likely) contexts.
Depending on the theme chosen, you will receive sounds that will make the experience even more real or pop-up windows to make everyone think that you are really hacking a site. Some themes even have alarms that go off, making everyone believe you've really tried to access a government website. A short video tutorial will allow you to use this service to the fullest, making your friends scared.
