¿Un bromista? Ofrecen en Internet el celular robado a Barbara Bush

[MADem]

This is pretty funny--apparently, some wag put on an internet selling website called Free Market an ad for Barbara Bush's stolen telephone, including in the sales pitch that one can call George and tell him what you've always wanted to about Iraq, oil, the economy...he said it would be delivered by Osama. The pitch got pulled, though, because it was a goof and didn't comply with the website conditions.

Si bien no se realizaron ofertas válidas por el celular, cuyo precio mínimo era de 1.000 pesos, el aviso generó gran cantidad de comentarios entre los usuarios de un sitio de subastas. Rápidamente lo dieron de baja.
Un desconocido ofreció este jueves en Internet el teléfono celular que le robaron en Buenos Aires a una de las hijas del presidente de EE.UU., en un aviso que incluso bromeaba con que Bin Laden sería el encargado de hacer la entrega.
"Teléfono móvil de Barbara Bush. ¡Qué mejor posibilidad! Con agenda incluida. Puedes llamar a George W. y decirle todo lo que siempre quisiste: Irak, petróleo, economía", indicaba el aviso colocado por un usuario en el sitio de subastas "Mercado Libre" y levantado a los pocos minutos por los responsables del portal.

Fuentes de Mercado Libre afirmaron a la agencia Efe que el aviso fue "dado de baja" de la red porque "carecía de seriedad, se trataba de un artículo dudoso y no cumplía con las condiciones del sitio"..... http://www.terra.com.ar/canales/actualidad/150/150675.html

Apparently it has not been taken down, and there are no takers ... nobody is interested?

6. The article says it was removed and that it was regarded as a prank. NT

2. Lordly this is funny

by the way, dime on the dollar the phone was cancelled... but boy, oh boy oh boy, now much info could potentially be in there... as in messages

4. Maybe the phone service was canceled...

But I would think some tabloids would have be interested in what numbers were in the memory.

3. I hate to admit it but.....

I'm almost ashamed one of us didn't think of this idea before. Damn people, we have had 6 years...just think of all those posts discussing WHAT we would say to Shrub and yet we never bothered to ask HOW. :rofl:
