Craigslister offers to scare people out of iPhone line

A San Francisco Craigslist posting is offering to supply "diversions" that will allow buyers to cut in line for the iPhone, and sadly, we're afraid he might not be joking.

"Why pay someone else big $$$ to wait in line if the only thing between you and the front of the line is a good diversion?" the post asks, claiming to come from a trademarked company called "Over Here, Jerks." "Our tactics are guaranteed to be safe, effective and even humorous!"

Photos accompanying the posting include a giant clown bicycle, a scary-looking bear, a two-headed snake and a piece of poop.

The advertisement goes on to stress that "services are not limited to lines! Want to kidnap your neighbor's obnoxious dog? Glue your boss' furniture to the ceiling? Enjoy our bulk discounts on tranquilizer darts and industrial-strength adhesives."

Looks like somebody watches The Office too much.

illegal, immoral,...... yes, no?

If people got shot and robbed at gunpoint for a PS3, you cqan be the iphone has the potential to get as crazy as that. While cutting in line isn't exactly illegal, it'll surely lead to illegal activities. And if it's a place which monitors and records it's premises, then forget it.

More like "Dirty Work" than "The Office"

This sounds exactly like Norm MacDonald's company in the movie Dirty Work. I believe in that movie all the crap they did ended up being illegal. I'm almost positive kidnapping a neighbor's annoying dog would be illegal (unfortunately!).
