A marketing agency called Tongue has reportedly begun a guerrilla marketing campaign against Apple in Australia. The agency recently hired protesters who were sent in a large black bus to an Apple Store, where they repeatedly chanted “Wake Up.” To accompany the protest, Tongue created a website called “Wake Up Australia” that includes a countdown to <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/04/16/here-comes-the-galaxy-s-iii-samsung-schedules-may-3rd-device-unveiling/">the launch of the Galaxy S III</a>, leading many to believe that the agency was hired by Samsung. The South Korea-based vendor <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/02/06/samsung-airs-10-million-anti-iphone-ad-during-super-bowl-video/">has previously targeted Apple</a> on <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/01/20/iphone-owners-get-samsunged-in-new-galaxy-s-ii-ad-video/">more than one occasion</a>, and promises its latest flagship smartphone will help users “<a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/04/23/samsung-teases-the-next-galaxy-video/">stand out from everyone else</a>.” The incident was captured on film by an Australian blogger and the video follows below.<span id="more-137128"></span>
