I know this is somewhat old... but have you all seen
http://www.savetoby.com ??
Toby is the cutest little bunny on the planet. Unfortunately, he will DIE on June 30th, 2005 if you don.t help...
Unfortunately, on June 30th, 2005, Toby will die. I am going to eat him. I am going to take Toby to a butcher to have him slaughter this cute bunny...
However, God as my witness, I will devour this little guy unless I receive 50,000$ USD into my account from donations or purchase of merchandise. You can help this poor, helpless bunny’s cause by making donations through my verified PayPal account by clicking on any of the Donate buttons on this site, or by purchasing merchandise at the Savetoby.com online store.
The paypal account currently has $20,375!!!

whether or not if this is fake, it's illegal....it's like holding a ransom, plus of course it's animal cruelty.
for shits and giggle, i clicked on the PayPal status...the guy can not receive any payments anymore...
-
It is not animal cruelty because eating animals is a Creator-endowed human right. However, it may be extortion.

good point....it's be animal cruelty if he beat the rabbit to death first...
but yeah...it's extortion, not to mention stupid for him to even try and get money from people...
and for those who actually donated... :roll: come on now...

I was relatively annoyed by this back when i first saw it. At least shortly after he said all donations will go to animal shelters(or something similar im not going to go look again). Whatever i dont know anyone that could have a pet for a year then eat it, ive only had my cat 8 months and i <3 her
-
its crazy that he's earned so much money... though some of it might not have been straight donating though... there is the "toby store" and you can buy silly shirts and things, which part of the money goes to. i was considering buying one cuz they're so funny

He loves Toby too, but the fact of the matter is, he has to eat him. :?
-
but if he really loved toby... would he eat him?
-
I love chicken, and I eat it.
I know - it's not the same. :razz:
-
yeah, it isn't the same.

That is sick.
That HAS to be illegal.

i dunno... its been around for a while... and it appears he's raised a lot of money... but the paypal acct is not working... so maybe they didn't like it and stopped it??
