The mobile phone President Bush's twin daughter, Barbara, lost in
Buenos Aires - was reportedly up for
grabs on an internet auction site.
The phone was put up for sale on website Mercado Libre -the Argentinian
equivalent of eBay - with a starting price of about 160 pounds, reports
Terra.cl.
"Barbara Bush's mobile, an amazing possibility," Ananova quoted the
advert on the website, as claiming.
"It has George Bush's private number plus Michael Jackson's, Madonna's
and Paris Hilton's," it added.
But, it was quickly removed from the website, as it featured numbers
for the White House, Pentagon, FBI, CIA, and the IMF in its phone book.
Barbara Bush's mobile phone was snatched at a Buenos Aires restaurant
during a night on the town in November - when the twin sisters had stayed
on, celebrating their birthday over the Thanksgiving weekend.
The headlines dominating TV and newspaper coverage in Argentina at that
time included the theft of her phone and her credit cards, as well as
reports of the twins running naked in the hallway of the hotel, an allegation
the hotel staff denied.
