Heinz ketchup offers free porn with every EZ SQUIRT bottle
When Daniel Korell scanned the QR code on the side of his bottle of Heinz ketchup he was transported not a site allowing him to design his own bottle (as promised) but to a world for German sex. Mr Korell writes:
Your Ketchup is probably nothing for minors ;). Perhaps you should give time the IT department decision – the posted happened anyway if you scan the QR code on the Heinz bottle. Tested with various mobile phones and QR code readers. Oh, and for direct input of the URL you get the same result.
Heinz explained that its ownership of website “Fundorado.de” had expired. The porn industry had snapped it up. The company replied:
Hi Daniel, when your bottle is a residual item. The campaign Spread the word with HEINZ” no longer exists. For this reason, no leads and the printed QR code to our site. Unfortunately we can not control which side will be visible therefore. Your Heinz Team
Korell wrote back:
Hello Heinz team, the bottle may be a remnant, but it is certainly present in many households. For me it is incomprehensible that you can not secure at least the domain for 1-2 years. A .com domain really does not cost the world. A small note on the past action and the matter is settled. So that’s just embarrassing. Regards Daniel Korell
Heinz made him an offer:
Hi Daniel, we really regret the incident and take your suggestions very for the implementation of future campaigns like on! As an apology we would like to offer you that you can have subsequently create your own label. We will send you the bottle of course free of charge for. Please let us to with your request for the label and your address as a private message. Your Heinz Team
Adding:
Hi Daniel Korell, wow! Heinz has since perhaps confused the horny LILA FunDorado with his purple ketchup EZ SQUIRT ;). Anyway, of course you’re not going empty even with us out. We give you a year with www.FunDorado.com free! Just send us an email. Greetings, your team FunDorado.
