I got linked to this blog among other sites. Interestingly enough, Alltel MyCircle never pops up, only a lot of negative Alltel commentary. Seems like a half thought-up ad scheme if that's what a search pulls up. I never clicked the ad itself, as the link directed me to www.alltelcircle.com and was a bit weary as to what that may be.

Then Blogads wrote me to tell me it's a spoof and actually Alltel's ad. That's why it's running. I must admit, though, it's very hard to figure out it's a spoof. Guy Zoli,

Interesting, I first rejected the ad for the same reason. Then Blogads wrote me to tell me it’s a spoof and actually Alltel’s ad.

That’s why it’s running. I must admit, though, it’s very hard to figure out it’s a spoof.

In fact, on the page you are led to, if you click trial, you get supportmycircle.com showing pictures of the actor in the "my circle" television spots. Underneath it all, it is merely a cleverly concocted advertisement campaign. I can’t say with utmost certainty, but I believe the PAMCF class-action suit is a spoof.
