Unbelievable Offer!

On the roadside near my house, there were a couple of handmade, spraypainted signs saying:

Free Massage
5 Minutes

This is a really shitty version of a Veblen good, where demand actually decreases as the price goes down.  Just out of curiosity, I was tempted to find out who was offering this deal; the sign didn't say who it belonged to, but the nearby area has the following establishments:
  • A hair salon
  • An autoshop
  • A tailor
  • Some weird place with indecipherable Greek writing on the window
  • A butcher shop
The big mystery is whether this is just some garden variety pervert, or if its a raping-and-murdering variety pervert.
