Many thanks to the person who sent me a newspaper clipping, who only signed their name as "J". The envelope didn't even have a rubber stamp indicating where it came from!

Oh! Looked genuine to me - if it is marketing then it's rather good.

I've had relatives receive a similar thing - the fact the handwriting looks so genuine and unique makes people open it. Quite an effective method; whether the article is actually read or not is another issue!

It's about marketing, coincidentally enough. Has my name (although not my preferred name), is almost certainly newspaper print, complete with the frizzy cut lines, does indeed have "handwriting" on a post-it note, came in a "handwritten" envelope, 2nd class stamp... I wonder whether his marketing splurge has this technique in it?
