    It'd take a skilled artist all of maybe an hour to rig up an existing picture and add custom details, and make it look fairly realistic, you don't need an actual photo or cooperation from others, hell I could do it in a few minutes myself, but I probably couldn't get it quite so seamless. I'm not saying there's no way it isn't real, just seems improbable. Even if they did just open chances are good there'd be some level of presence on the internet prior to the day it shows up with people pointing and going 'ooh ooh, big whoopsie!' Most businesses would put a placeholder for their webpage, there'd be documentation written about the place prior to opening, there'd be articles written about the decision to set up the facility, there'd be a LOT of background information beyond just the webpage and facebook. There's next to nothing that I can find, but, to be fair chances are it'd all be in Vietnamese, and google translate can only bridge that gap so far. So until someone contacts HCMC health department or physically visits the site (which supposedly has had the incriminating evidence removed, but I'm sure you could still find someone there who'd know about it if it was legit.) On the other hand, there are plenty of cases where people plaster something up on a wall unaware of what it might mean at the time, or in the future.

    yes, this one is 100% legitimate, I took the picture myself XD (and no, it isn't there anymore ;) )

    Puts new meaning to the phrase "Drink straight from the tap." Doesn't it?

    This one goes out to MagnusEffect. At least they didn't have to fight any accursed Kübelwagens.
