FREE MONKEY!!!!!
I am moving Oct. 21 into an apt. complex that does not allow animals. I need of a loving family for my adorable monkey. His name is Frankie…. Katie xxx-xxx-xxxx
Would you like to touch my monkey? Touch my monkey! Love him!
Poor Frankie the tiny monkey with photoshopped horns. Poor Katie with her moving and her phone number on the internet for lunatics to call. Too bad none of it’s true.
Martha sent this one in saying, “This ad HAS to be a joke.” I’m sure she’s right, especially since if you do a TinEye image search, you come up with pages and pages of this image (though most without the photoshopped horns, and most with two rings on the fingers). Here’s a screenshot with the text made teeny-tiny, just like the monkey, so you can see that there’s multiple hits and pages of results …
This ad has also been taken down in the meantime. We may never know the true story behind Katie and Frankie, unless VH1 gets around to it soon.
Man, it’s like you can’t trust anything you read on the Internet anymore.
Oh my god! I heard about TinEye some time ago but forgot the name and couldn’t figure out how to find it on Google—you are my hero for mentioning it!!!!

Dumbest scam ever. Do you have a tag for that?
