LG phone mystery

Saw this on Gizmodo.com I wonder what its about



"I don't know if it's a competition, or some crazy way to recover experimental chips—but LG is on a global hunt for 5 of its Chocolate phones. They've placed newspaper ads across 12 countries with specific serial numbers:

If you're listed, well I guess you have the golden ticket (***** Wonka, chocolate, see what I did there?) Anyway, you have until tomorrow to let LG know. It all seems quite cryptic and strange. What does LG want with my 5-megapixel DIY ****, anyway? We could find out about a week after the hunt closes. But what do you think?"

Do you think it is something regarding leaked phones? Something that was a beta version and was accidently leaked out. So they come up with this scheme to get the phones back, lol.
