Fragrance Product
Line Named "FCUK"-Truth!
Summary of the eRumor The eRumor is a warning
and a petition request about a new line of products with the name
"FCUK."
The Truth
The product line is true.
There is fragrance, clothing, and a variety of other FCUK products.
The eRumor is also authentic and is from the American Family
Association.
According to a 9/27/03 article in the Cincinnati Star Tribune, at
least one major company, Federated Department Stores, has announced
it is pulling the FCUK products from its shelves.
Federated owns Macy's Bloomingdales, and Burdines.
A real example of the eRumor as it has
appeared on the Internet:
A holiday promotion for the fragrances calls for
stores to issue "License to FCUK" cards, which include a code
to enter at scenttobed.com for a chance on a trip for six to Club Med
and a list of "best pick-up lines."
Some stores have refused to join the campaign, but many are eagerly
joining with the hopes of making millions by exploiting our children.

Please send your email to these retailers letting them know of your
concern.
(Your message will route through our AFA Action Center to each of the
stores listed.)
Please forward this email to just one friend. It is time to stop the
exploitation of our children!
Sincerely,
Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman
American Family Association
