Free Cars Fool Plenty
from the not-that-surprising dept
Esquire ran an April Fool's joke where they created a fake dot com that would give people a free car if they were willing to have it covered in advertisements for feminine hygiene products. They added the typical touches like a Stanford MBA and an "outrageous" presentation where he raised money. Esquire figured no one would believe it, but plenty did. Especially interesting were the number of competitors to the company that flipped out and wanted to get in touch with them.
