Consumer Electronics giant Sony’s latest advt on PS3 is surely making Nigerian govt a worried lot. Nigerian govt has demanded an unconsitional apology from Sony. Many of us have received scam mails from Nigeria requesting for help to transfer money. These are also known as 401 scams. This is for the first time a corporate giant has used it in the promotion. Adding a touch of creativity like this to the advt has helped sony in going viral with this advt.  In the ad, a rumor squasher responds to a rumor mongrel’s  request for comment about a PS3 price-drop. Pat comes the reply: ‘You can not believe everything you read on the net. Otherwise I would have been a Nigerian millionaire by now.’
