The call took a comic turn when the male's mixed American-British accent caused the officer to ask whether he lived in the U.K. "I don't brush my teeth. I like tea. I'm from the U.K.," he replied.

The male caller also claimed his brother was Ryan Cleary, an alleged Anonymous member arrested in the U.K. last June and facing five computer-related charges. Anonymous, a decentralized group of politically motivated hackers, has been quiet lately following the arrests of people whom police claim were some of its most skilled participants.

Eventually, a female officer terminated the call, warning that the FBI would be notified. Near the end of the call after the officers had hung up, someone is heard encouraging "TriCK" to call the hotline again.

Softpedia published what it claims is with TriCK, in which TriCK said TeaMp0isoN used a script to make nonstop calls to the hotline for 24 hours. TriCK reportedly said the reason for the attack was to protest the extradition of people to the U.S. on unfounded terrorism accusations.
