There's a section on the Honda website about the 'Remember to forget' campaign http://remembertoforget.honda.com.au/

----------------------------------------------------
It's part of a campaign about Honda's hybrid cars ( http://www.bandt.com.au/news/breaking-campaign--honda-enlists-memory-expert-for  )

"Honda is launching a new digital campaign that aims to change the attitudes of Australians towards hybrid cars.

Created by DTDigital, the campaign features the fictional character Ziggy Fairweather who seeks to wipe the negative perceptions about hybrid cars from people’s minds.

The use of the character hopes to play against the perceptions of hybrids as being akin to a ‘science experiment’ - boring and overly complicated - as the brand prepares to launch its latest hybrid offering.

The campaign will include an integrated social media campaign using Facebook and Twitter to introduce the character via an infomercial on Honda’s YouTube channel.

The campaign can be seen at www.drfairweathermemordol.com.au and www.remembertoforget.com.au where users receive an intimate one-on-one with Fairweather.
"

I think it's legit, but I think you're right - the 'memerdol' site is meant to be tongue in cheek (like those weird commonwealth bank ads  :shock: )

The domain appears registered to Honda, or at least to someone who works there: Corinne Wilson (corinnew@honda.com.au). You could try emailing her and see if you get a response!

Additionally, the domain name servers point to dtdigital.com.au, the same name servers as for the main Honda site (honda.com.au). So it looks kinda legit....

Within a couple of minutes of my entering this strange competition my phone rang. I thought "that's bl**dy quick!" but it was a friend calling and NOT a nuisance call from Honda. :lol:

I'm just paranoid I guess.  :D
