On a personal note:
I remember calling 911 when I was 7 because my mom had some strange tumor or something that made her faint while making lunch. It sorta freaked me out but she told me to call dispatch when she regained conciousness. I just said my mom was sick and stuff, and I handed the phone over to her. About 10 minutes later EMS arrived.
Basically, yeah, I would have an idea of the frustration these operators face. It's really up to the discrepancy of the operator, but what should have been done is that they should send the emergency crews there then if it is indeed fake, then the emergency crews could settle for a lawsuit to get back the fees of dispatching emergency crew out. From what my school principal said in high school, it's about $1500 for each time the fire bell is rang, either accidentally or "This time for serious". I don't know the "fees" for dispatching an ambulance or police, but I'm guessing about $500.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
