Find out who did it, make a post similar with their name and number, only change metal to copper. People will shit everywhere. Copper>metal big time

personally i'd make another ad saying that ad for free metal is a scam.

Then shut off your phone and wait it out.

I did this exact thing to my roommate while he was on study abroad. I made a post that said "free firewood" and when he came home his inbox was fulllll.

One of my buddies got fucked over by some guy trying to buy a car a while back, so he posted up an ad for a Civic or Integra with an extremely legit list of ricer-desired mods, listed it in the Bronx for a superrr low price, and posted it under the guys name and number.

He got lots of calls, a couple days later called my buddy threatening to sue him. My buddy said he had no idea what he was talking about and hung up.

This doesn't help you at all, but I find it entertaining. What did you do to piss someone off recently?

That's the million dollar question, recently I got kicked off my schools computer systems becaus this kid left him email up after receiving a paper from his mom and I kindly wrote "Dear mom, I'm so sorry to tell you this way but, Emily, she's pregnant. Please talk to dad and ill come straight home." So I think I know the suspect
