Technically, you could be charged with criminal use of a communication device, but it would really depend on what you said or did during the call. Generally, the police don't worry too much about harmless joke phone calls, but crossing the line is another issue. It could become harassment, hence illegal. Today, there are so many ways to find out who is calling you, that I wouldn't recommend it.
