Burger King Issues a Cease & Desist…on Twitter

Yes, Burger King has issued a Cease & Desist order via Twitter. This comes just days after an Australian judge ruled that Facebook could be used to server a home owner foreclosure legal documents.  Okaaaaay.

The official Burger King Twitter account has apparently sent such a notice to the account "WhopperVirgins", which seems to have been "brandjacked" by someone outside of the fast food company.

This is interesting stuff, no doubt.  Just yesterday, we got word that Burger King released a meat-scented fragrance called "Flame by BK", locaed at www.FireMeetsDesire.com.  If there's anything I want to smell like for the ladies, it's dead cow.

Could this all be one big publicity stunt?  I wouldn't be surprised.

I do know this though.  I am now extremely hungry.
