Title: David Copperfield.
Post by: Sidoh on January 22, 2006, 09:39:27 PM
This is an e-mail forward that has been circulating around my area for a few days.  After hearing about it from my mom, I was slightly interested, but did not watch it.  I just finished watching it on my sister's computer, but I immediately recognized their "tactics."

The PPS can be downloaded here ( 188 kb ): http://www.sidoh.org/~sidoh/dc1.pps

I seriously laughed for about three minutes after realizing how simplistic of a tactic this is.  I couldn't believe anyone with an IQ of 40+ fell for it.  It fooled my mom and my sister; they're both pretty blonde, but it's still kind of funny.

Caught red-handed:

After reading the "Look!  Your card is gone!", this image popped into my head:

After I wrote this, I figured I'd search Snopes for it just for the hell of it.  Haha:

I've seen that a lot. When I first saw it the first time, I was curious, so I picked two cards, then I realized what it did :\.

I actually fell for it about two and a half years ago when I first got it. :\
