Mystery surrounds bizarre message graffitied through Melbourne suburb

Mystery surrounds what appears to be a woman’s desperate attempt to get in touch with a man in Melbourne.

Pictures posted to the Frankston Community Noticeboard Facebook page show a number of surfaces in the south east suburb tagged with a bizarre graffitied message.

“Chris U need 2 talk 2 me b4 baby is born or don’t bother after (sic),” the graffiti reads.

The photos posted to Facebook show the message covering a barbecue, pavement, walls and doors.

“Chris ... can you please just call her before she destroys the whole city?” the post says.

The pictures have been shared almost 10,000 times and hordes of people have commented pleading with ‘Chris’ to call the graffiti artist.

Others have criticised the person behind the message for tagging public spaces.

“No wonder Chris is avoiding you,” one commented.

“Terrible,” another said.

“Typical Frankston behaviour. Chris is in trouble,” somebody else claimed.
