You would not be getting the root user involved ;) For a normal user, .bashrc can fool ssh/telnet, maybe even scp, but not ftp. To fool ftp, you would need to configure your ftpd which probably requires root privileges. But then again, if you have those root privileges, usermod -d /tmp/me <username> solves the problem for ssh, scp and telnet, and maybe ftp.
