Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35-70mm f/4G ED N lens?

I am really pissed. The email containing this image was marked as junk mail and was sitting in my spam queue for days (click on image for larger view):

My problems with that lens is its size - shouldn't it be much smaller for a 35-70 f/4? It almost appears to be bigger than the current 24-70 f/2.8 lens:

Here is also the latest 16-35 f/4 for comparison:

Photoshop job or not? What say you?

    Obvious fake.
    Right is from 24-70, so is the front, rest is from 16-35 but slightly elongated, and you can clearly see that numbers 35-70 are fake.
