With April Fool’s Day less than a week away, dangerous pranks are just waiting to be pulled on unsuspecting friends, family and coworkers.

To help protect unsuspecting Canadians from pranks, Virgin Mobile has released an awareness video ahead of April 1:

The company suggests a variety of checklists to protect yourself at home and at work, such as watching and memorizing Home Alone 1 & 2, and to “Wear protective equipment including but not limited to bubble wrap, pillows or Snuggies.”

Sounds like a good plan. Next Wednesday, trust no one and question everything you read online. Or be prepared to weep endlessly in the shower, in the fetal position.
