 George Agdgdgwngo
George is the African scamster who'll try to get hold of your bank details using a variety of stupid stories to lure you into giving him access to your cash.
As the representative of Money Removal PLC, he needs to transfer your money from your current vault whilst it's being steam cleaned, otherwise it'll get wet.
Or maybe the entire bank vault is being redecorated and refurbished with a Christmas theme? The interior decorators of Bank Festive Redistribution PLC need to get access to your account number and sort code so they can festivise your vault with some tinsel and a tree, and George can facilitate this.
George is also responsible for many international competitions which you have won, that accumulates all the 1ps and 2ps people forget about into a monies pot worth over £80! Just let him know your details and he'll wire over your winnings immediately!
"Welcome to automatic telephone banking, after the beep please enter your bank account details..."
 Mr Miggins
A somewhat confused elderly gent who finds himself struggling with Genie's playing Space Invader's in his frontroom after his wife bought a brass lamp last Wednesday. That's right, Thursday
 Mr Doovdé
A camel riding aficionado of electrical goods, Mr Doovdé struggles with acronyms, often mistaking them for complete words like 'Hoomv' (HMV), 'Doovd/Doovdé' (DVD), 'Pisp/Poospé' (PSP), 'MUP3' (MP3), 'LucDe TIV' (LCD TV), and Ibrahiem Puck (IBM PC).
"Do you like Pink Poospé?"
 Terry Tibbs
Terry Tibbs has had more women than you’ve had hot dinners son! He’s a geezer with tasty line schmateh and the schpiel to match. Owner of Tibbs Motors Limited, you don’t just jump into bed with Terry Tibbs, you take Terry Tibbs out to lunch, you wine and dine him, you give him an oil massage then he gives you 1950 if you’re lucky!
TALK TO ME!
 The Mouse
The Mouse is a smart rodent who requires the regular help from local services, be they a vet because he's been poisoned after eating some cheese with green powder on it, or an exterminator to take care of a cat that ate his mother, father, brother and his cousin from the country.
"How much catnip would it take to render the cat unconscious? Are cats flammable?"
Brian Betonde is a man who has a speech impediment where everything he says ends up starting with the letter B. His accent is like art critic Brian Sewell. The impediment is prevented if Brian takes medication. Brian has made a call before without his speech affecting the call, when he rang a restaurant to ask about his blind date. It was also revealed that Brian is in fact homosexual.
Detective Horace Von Khute is a telephone fraud prevention officer from Zimbabwe, and is known to ask victims questions pertaining to a previous prank call. He speaks in a hushed, gravelly, South African tone. Also, Detective Horace has an unusually long telephone number, making it hard to give and confirm that it is correct.
Mike is a Northern Irish tele-salesman who calls on the behalf of dodgy companies asking the victim questions about things such as their personal life or the tragic plight of the wrinkled ballsac.
The Chinese DVD Gang is a group of illegal, obese Chinese students who obviously attempt to illegally record films in cinemas. One member also claims to be a Chinese Samuel L. Jackson lookalike.
The Flat Line is an "automated" service for people wanting to buy or rent properties around the country. Callers are usually unsuccessful in their efforts as the service selects the incorrect properties. At the start of the conversation, the 'automated' service will usually make a "beep" to allow the caller to speak, but towards the end of conversations, delays the beep until the person actually speaks, forcing them into repeating the same word. One person did manage to select the correct property, only to have the service malfunction totally. This is the only time people have phoned the Fonejacker, rather than the other way around, aside from Episode Six of Series 1 where Terry Tibbs was seen to receive a phone call.
Criminal Dave is a bank robber who usually has quite large serious flaws in his plans. For example he attempts to schedule a get-away in a minicab and to arrange for a locksmith to open the bank's safe.
Jafooley[1] alias, The Beatboxer is a man who phones a company or shop and beatboxes to give details confusing the 'victim' . These pranks are done using a hidden camera instead of animation.
Mr. Broadbandings is an Indian man who works in a call centre in India for Internet Service Providings, a highly-priced ISP that promises "42 megabytings" data speed and "a better providings than your current providings". He also works for Mobile Network Providings.
Donald Donaldson is a posh sounding bisexual gentleman who phones hotel receptions and security guards asking for sexual favours from males. He does have a wife and believes she is cheating on him. He is believed to enjoy champagne, nibbles, and 'fucking like rabbits'.
Vishka Vishkovski is a Russian circus act who does 'the bear dancing on the hot coals. He phones up Zippo's circus to ask for a job. The actor used for Vishka also appears in the line up round as a the posible guitarist from the band 'Fox' on the episode of 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' that Kaiser Chief's Ricky Wilson presented. He of course wasn't but is easily recognizable in Fonejacker due to his distinctive hair and moustache.
