So I go to Stage6 this morning to look for Gears of War videos since they're working on a PC version and I'd never really paid attention to press on the 360 version.
In place of the old "How Spiderman 3 Should Have Ended" now there's a faked video about a "missing" girl named Hope Wilcott. The video is poorly edited with bad actors and tries to convince the viewers this girl was abducted under mysterious circumstances.
They're going all out trying to fool people, with a fake MySpace page and blog. Her "fiancée" deletes comments calling him out and apparently some fools on MySpace are falling for it.
All the images not hosted on MySpace are coming from this directory (with listing enabled) hosted on this site which is obviously related to independent film making.
I think it's a bit distasteful. They'll probably get media coverage over this when news outlets start exposing the scam. It's like a retarded "spiritual successor" to The Blair Witch Project.
