Here is one of my favorites.

A radio and TV ad for a senior living referral service:

“Hi, I’m (celebrity spokesperson), and if you’re worried about your parent or a loved one living alone, like I was, and you want reliable senior care information, then call (the referral service) . . .”

When I heard this, I was concerned, and immediately googled the celebrity spokesperson to see if she had experienced some financial, or other, problems that lead to her living alone.  I couldn’t find any reference to any such problems or living situation.
