I found a great spoof site – link – for laser eye surgery. The front page should be a give away… Never trust an eye surgeon with glasses. Well, that is not a 100% rule, but it is a good idea that this is a spoof. They supply a device to do the surgery at home for only $99. I am sure that I would not trust my eyes to a piece of plastic that costs that much, when the professional equipment probably costs hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The SMH has a story on a bunch of people who are waging war on a company that is using Dodgy practices for marketing. They ring mobiles once and then hang up, getting people to ring back telling them that they can get free ringtones, if they spend only $15-20 on a 1900 number. Under the telecommunications act the carriers can simply designate that they are causing issues for the phone network, and they must stop this conduct. Of course they are getting too much income in!
