“Empty Gift Box”
April 1st, prepare a cute gift box, wrap it nicely, then give it to your friend with the note: “Tặng bạn món quà này, mở ra xem đi!”. When they excitedly open it and there's nothing inside, you just sit there and laugh. That's enough.

Clock Running on the Wrong Time
If you live with a close friend, secretly set the clock ahead or behind by 1-2 hours. The next morning, see how your friend hurriedly gets ready for school or work—it's hilarious. Not a few people have fallen for this simple prank, you can try it on the upcoming April 1.
Sticker on the Back
Sticking a sticker on someone's back is a classic prank that never goes out of style, and anyone can easily become a victim. Stick a small note that says “Kick me” or “I’m not handsome but goofy” on your friend's back without them noticing. The more people who see it, the funnier it is, but remember not to embarrass your friend too much!

“Fake” Cake
Who doesn't love cake, right? But this fake cake made from foam or cardboard, with real frosting on top, cannot be eaten. When you invite your close friend to enjoy it and start cutting, your friend's puzzled expression will surely make you bend over with laughter. This April 1 prank for friends is simple and effective, and harmless!
However, if they see you holding a cake on this day, not your friend's birthday, they will also be suspicious.
Surprise Prize
Send a message like: “Congratulations, you have won 10 million dong; please go to Supermarket X to claim your prize before 12 noon today!” Wait and see how your friend reacts; the gullible friend might actually run to claim it! Remember to reveal the truth before your friend gets angry with you.
Weird Glass of Water
This is a fun prank, but choose a suitable place so the water doesn’t stain the floor.
Take a cup of water, place a small piece of tape on the bottom so the water leaks slowly. Hand it to your friend and say: “Very refreshing, drink it.” When your friend picks it up and the water keeps dripping, their surprised expression proves the prank worked. And you should run away quickly because they'll realize right away that this is April 1.
Changing the Phone Theme
If you can borrow your best friend's phone and it isn't locked, change the wallpaper to a funny troll image. Like a cracked screen photo or some humorous icon found online. When they turn on the device, they’ll surely panic thinking the phone is actually broken. This prank is incredibly easy to do and everyone can join in the fun.

Mysterious Call
Call your friend from an unknown number, pretending to be a debt-collection agent with a serious voice: “You owe Company X 5 million dong, you must pay today!” Listening to your friend stammer in explanation means you’ve succeeded!
Food Prank
You're going out to eat. Check if there is some horseradish or a flavor your friend hates on the table; spread a little on the middle of the sandwich or a piece of grilled meat. Feed it to your friend and wait to see their face wrinkle in disgust.
Note, if you have an allergy to any ingredient, do not do this.
“Fake” Crush Invitation
Make sure your friend isn't too uptight to try this.
Write a handwritten letter or a fake message in the name of your friend's crush, inviting them to a romantic location. When the friend arrives and only sees you standing there with a not-so-friendly smile, you’re guaranteed both of you will have an unforgettable memory!
