Most people have robots that look like themselves, only younger, fitter and better looking. One rather large bloke, though, had a rather nice looking female version. That would be worth a dollar too...

I haven't seen the movie Surrogates, but it reminds me a bit of The Matrix. Is anyone in the network aware that this guy's virtual self is female?
Possible the administrators, but not the other robot owners. Good fun! (Although, not to be a spoiler, but this person is one of the first victims in the story.... it's a futuristic detective story.)
