000-000-0000 Calling! (Viral Marketing)
Jayeugene | 8:18 PM on 07.31.2008 3 comments


Edit: I just realized there is a story about this before me about this. Sorry. I could have deleted this post, but i thought i would share my story too.

So I'm washing my car and its a beautiful evening outside and my phone rings. I pick it up to hear a woman, sounding quite stressed, say that her name is Dr. (something or other) i don't remember her name. She continues to tell me how cold and baren it is where she is at and something about Americans being killed. She then goes on to say that she needs help and needs me to seek out Project Abraham. The call then ends and leaves me with a sort of chill. Not only was this call very eerie, but it came from a number 000-000-0000 (i think this is a general mask number).

So i scurry home and dig into the web about this "Project Abraham" and found out that there is a series of viral videos for Resistance 2: Project Abraham and what do you know? There is the lovely doctor herself. Apparently this call is being made across the nation tonight so if you get a random call, hopefully you read this first. They fooled me! Check out more at http://www.projectabraham.com

Edit 2: I will make this story more interesting by telling you what i was actually thinking after i listened to the call. I was thinking that it could be an elaborate plot by an organization seeking to kill people who answer the phone and start investigating Project Abraham. Either that or possibly some recorded call from a resistance group wanting to start a rising. I don't know if i ever heard the word "Chimera" or not. If i had, then i think i would have known right away what was going on. Thanks be to Manta for the first story on this all.

I get so many viral marketing/arg calls that I'm never sure what each one's for. I thought this one was for Heroes before she mentioned Project Abraham.
