This one case is sticking in my head, but the details are very fuzzy. The basic idea was that an elderly couple, I think were somehow being harassed over their C-Band satellite dish. Threatening messages being written across the screen and such. And whoever was doing it was somehow monitoring them like when the old woman yelled at the screen "SHUT UP" the message responded with "YOU SHUT UP" Looking back it appears to be a hoax from my perspective, or a prank my some local person. Really, how was whoever doing it able to respond to them? Anyone have more details such as the people names and stuff?

Wow. I've watched UM from the beginning and being the AV Technogeek that I am, I am sure I would have remembered something like that. Are you certain this was an Unsolved Mysteries episode?

You have me intrigued. I can't remember a segment like this, but now I'm itching to see it.

I think this is a prank.

This is not a prank, I do recall watching this, and I am 99% sure it was on Unsolved Mysteries.

I am happy to be proven wrong, but I really don't think this was on UM. I'd love to hear more about it, though! Sounds freaky!

It just sounds like an episode of Tales From the Darkside.

I am sure it was not a Darkside ep, never watched that show.

I wonder if it was on "A Current Affair"?

Kudos for bringing that show up:lol: Have not thought about it in YEARS!! :happyface

Oddly enough, I have a vague memory of such a case. I have no idea if it was on UM, though. Was the volume of the tv or dish ever involved? Like it would suddenly get way loud all on it's own?

Wow I havent ever seen this!!

I would think it would be impossible to do thia unless 1 had a microphone in the house!
