Russian pranksters Vovan (Vladimir Kuznetsov) and Lexus (Alexey Stolyarov) announced the name of the most stupid participant of their pranks.
Speaking for the podcast of Russian blogger and designer Artemy Lebedev, the pranksters said that former Prime Minister of North Macedonia Zoran Zaev was the most stupid person whom they had ever pranked.
They called the politician on behalf of former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. The pranksters did not publish the recording of the prank call for about a year. Zoran Zaev did not even suspect that he was communicating with pranksters during that time. On the contrary, he would send them photos from meetings with other politicians in the WhatsApp messenger. Moreover, he even shared contacts of Kosovo government officials "for his friend Petro."
"This is probably the stupidest politician we have ever talked to,” Kuznetsov said.
Vovan and Lexus also said that top officials of different countries, including presidents, would often leave their phone numbers to pranksters themselves.
