True.com disclaimer

by David Evans on April 4, 2005   in Marketing

I read BoingBoing several times a day. Consistently rated the #1 weblog, it features the best links submitted by thousands of loyal readers. Last night I saw that True.com is doing some boobalicious advertising on BoingBoing. The scantily clad co-ed ad links to a page featuring this disclaimer, “If you are married, please close your browser.” I’m not sure what Title, 18, Section 1343 of the U.S. code is, or why the fine for joining a dating site under false pretenses is up the $250,000 and a jail sentence of up to five years. Any legal beagles out there able to shed some light on this?

It’s saying it could be construed as Wire Fraud if you agree to their terms – which state you are saying you’re not Married…

Just a thought…
