    It was a hoax, a good one obviously, they didn't defraud anyone and they didn't try and hide the fact it was faked by them, they admitted it on their own site and they even made a video showing the actors in the oil executive video. I'm willing to bet the first people who made ads for it all knew it was a hoax and just got the joke rolling. I doubt very many people if any submitted an ad thinking it was real and if they did jokes on them. The fact that Shell's lawyers aren't saying anything likely means they know damn well there isn't proper grounds for defamation.
