Heh...
That reminded me of a few years back (maybe more than a few) when the Marlboro people were running a promotion to smokers - you (if I remember correctly) just had to dial a number, verify your age, and they sent you tat.
Easy.
Well, not quite so...the verification consisted of you having to say 'Marlboro' to the automated line, but when pronounced in the local accent 'Marlburra', it refused to accept it, so I had to put on a horrendous merkin accent to get my crappy ciggy related junk.
