Awhile back I posted about a supposed promotion at a California dealership by a guy named Glen Fergusson. The story went that Glen hadn’t been at the dealership too long and wasn’t very good at math. Glen supposedly gave away 18 Porsches before the owner of the dealership caught on, canceled the promotion and fired Glen. Old Glen was going to be in big trouble as the dealership worked to recover the losses from this ill fated promotion.
Well, it was all a fake! I did some checking and found that this story was fabricated by a writer at the New Zealand based “Stuffed” humor site.
