It came across as the most lame attempt at getting an upgrade I've witnessed...and thats saying something, as those FB comments sections are literally teeming with upgrade beggars.
At the danger of thread creep, I've seen worse, particualrly one very infamous letter on RAF headed notepaper that was handed to the cabin crew to give to the Captain. Not sure if the letter itself is out there in the public domain but it did enough rounds of social media that they apparntly had to disconnect the associated telephone number and email address!
