Is MarryOurDaughter.com a hoax?

Someone just alerted me to MarryOurDaughter.com. It's a site that claims to:

Marry Our Daughter is an introduction service assisting those following the Biblical tradition of arranging marriages for their daughters.

Those who wish to list their Daughters with our site should click on SIGN UP OUR DAUGHTER on our main page for a form to fill out.

Those who wish to propose to a specific Daughter should click on the PROPOSE button on the Daughter’s INFO CARD.

SEE THE SITE

The site shows pictures of girls and has a profile for each with an asking price that ranges from $19,000 to $40,000.

I'm jaded and believe it can't be real. No way. This is a hoax or marketing stunt for something. In a few weeks the people behind it will announce the truth just like that organ donation game show in Europe.

UPDATE
Ted Oberg emailed me Tuesday night to say that MarryOurDaughter.com is a hoax. The New York Times has the full story. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
