PETALING JAYA, March 13 — A Malaysian driver was less than amused after discovering a parking fine tucked in his car’s windshield wiper, only to discover that it was a deceptive-looking flyer.
Twitter user @tenoq posted an angry tweet this morning with a side-by-side comparison photo of the flyer and an actual parking fine.
“Good morning to everyone except THIS mother****** who thought making flyers look like parking fines was a good idea,” @tenoq wrote.
The flyer was advertising a holiday resort in Seremban and even contained a disclaimer that said “#NotASummonPaper” (sic).
Several users who replied to @tenoq’s tweet were impressed by the company’s ingenious marketing ideas and attention-grabbing design.
“Technically it was a good idea since you gave it free marketing,” said @user0001_.
“Not a bad one (for) sure, you gave them the attention,” wrote @keyoyi.
