Truthfully, I believe it. Get a bunch of horny strangers networked together, someone's bound to share a bug. When a community that's 25% more likely to use network sites has seen a fourfold increase in syphillis, I'm not too surprised.
A friend of mine told me about how a family in Florida had this happen to their pink flamingo yard ornament. Every week or so, they'd get a post card written from the perspective of the flamingo about its travels through Europe and Asia. All the international postage was authentic, so they knew someone was actually traveling to the different countries. After a couple months, the flamingo was returned. They never figured out who took it, but they thought it was neat. They actually started to anticipate getting the next card in the mail.
