Virgin Mobile Canada ad with Eliot Spitzer

Virgin Mobile Canada is in the midst of a campaign that turns Eliot Sptizer’s woes into an ad copy. The former New York governor which is nowadays known as “Client #9″ is the star of a print ad that see him thinking through bubble: “I’m tired of being treated like a number…”

The rest of the copy says: “At Virgin Mobile, you’re more than just a number. When you call us we’ll treat you like a person, not a client. Whether you’re #9 or #900, you’ll get hooked up with somebody who’ll finally treat you just how you want to be treated.”

Man you should’ve used prepaid phones for calling like drug dealers do. ;)
