 		[Possible Extended Reality/ARG] AreYourSecretsSafe.com
I was out walking on Bloor West in Toronto and noticed at every crosswalk there were the words 'AreYourSecretsSafe.com' in day glo/florescent green-yellow and pink paint.

I was walking towards Bay St @ around 8am in the morning.

I automatically copied it down but sadly didn't have my camera on me. I'll take photos this afternoon in case they erase/scrub it off.

There was someone whom I think may have been a police officer standing beside one of them near a church...but his uniform looked mysterious as if it was more futuristic. Just saying.

I looked up the site when I got home and it redirects to a CTV website for The Listener. Apparently they want us to email a friend. Mind if I email one of you? My regular friends would get creeped out by it.


http://thelistener.ctv.ca/secretscene/

There's a video on there. The police officer person fits with the theme of the video or he's trying to catch the taggers.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Video:
Freak out your friends.
Implicate them as a criminal.
In an unreleased scene from television's latest primetime drama.
All you need is 60 seconds and a photo of your friend.
We'll do the rest.
The Listener (logo)


Then there's a form to email your friend.

Is it just me or does this remind anyone of The Game...that movie creeped me out. yet intrigued me.

Also I'm looking up about The Listener...

EDIT: I used my other email to see what would happen...it's a clip of the tv show.

 		I'm confused.

Do I just email a friend, calling them a criminal?

 		HM. Interesting! Someone can email me if you'd like to continue with it

XDeadbyDawnXSPLATgmail.com


EDIT: The website asks for a photo? I didn't go far enough to email someone else so, I don't know if one is actually required. Seems like an interesting T.V. show though! Smile

 		anyone can do it just create a gmail account

all that happens is you upload a picture of your friend or any picture. the site places this into a short video about the show and sends it to the provided address

 		Just in case this hasn't been pointed out. This is just one of those fun game things...

The car company Mini did it a while back when they unveiled their newest model here in the UK. They had a Brit actor posing as a gangster and you could choose your friends name, how they look, something they get 'picked on playfully for' etc.

And then you play the video and it basically comes across as if that person (the actor) is actually talking to the person you emailed.

It's quite fun Smile

ETA: The Listener is an AWESOME show Very Happy
