My wife picked up a toy cell phone made for toddler age kids that digitally records sound for quick and simple playback. Upon taking the toy out of the package and pushing play to hear the demo, she got an earfull - a death message from "Osama Bin Laden". A middle Eastern accented voice said, "My name is Osama Bin Laden. I will bomb you and kill you, die all of you die."
Now practical joke or not, this was extremely upsetting to my wife to say the least.
What would you do? I feel like something should be done, someone should be made aware of this, but not sure who to take this to.

First things first, I would get a lawyer, then contact the store and the manufacturer.
Why would you get a lawyer?????????
You're not thinking of some kind of law suit are you????????
after all this is how you described the guy suing the city b/c of the car accident

IMO morally this guy is the scum of the earth!!!
Yet, at least, he had some real and legitimatedamage to claim.
Badshotbob,
Although this may be upsetting to your wife and understandably so, I think it probably was just a prank. Many adolescent retail shelf stockers (or pranksters---like Kevin1) can probably speak like your stereotypical rag-head type.
I would probably take it back to the store and report it to the manager if you want. Perhaps he might offer you some type consolation. Either way that seams like the reasonable reaction.

I was hoping to create a gigantic spun twisted media frenzy out of this deal in order to sue the toy manufacturer for a good coin. I thought this could be my "payday".
Not really.
I'm sure it was some prankster in the store or even the chinese that put the thing together. Not sure. Maybe I'll take it back to the store to make them aware of it.
This toy was endorsed by Parenting Magazine, maybe I'll write them.

[8D]Hillbilly I knew that would get a rise out of someone! I for one would not sue anyone over this, I would bring it to the attention of both the store and the manufacturer, this obviously was a prank by either some kid at the store or some punk at the plant that makes these toys.
Remember those stupid Teletubby talking toys? One of the grandparents thought they were cute and bought them for the twins, we got one of the ones that says "******...******....******", we are saving it and will auction it off on E-Bay one of these years, they are very rare and there are folks that will pay big bucks for one, not me, but I will take a fools money any time he wants to give it to me![8D]
