Have you been the victim of a trick, or tricked somebody else? What's some really funny scams you've come across online? None of this has to be from THIS year.

Oh, and Happy April Fools :big_grin:

The one I liked best ... okay, actually there were several and I don't remember the years, sorry ...

When the newspaper comics switched cartoonists. That was hilarious (as was the year after, where one comic strip was blank in the first couple of panels, and then the parents appear, with one telling the other they weren't playing the same game they did last year).

My other favorite was Pizza Hut going to all the trouble to redesign everything as Pasta Hut. It was a great joke/ad campaign all at once.

I love when CartoonNetwork was playing the same Screwy Squirrel cartoon all day long and acted like as if schedule was completely normal.
