Just a heads up for your safety
I got this in a e-mail yesterday. Please read and inform others Had to pass this on! Would hate to see this happen to someone here or anywhere else.
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public
parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window
of the car. When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas.
Luckily my friend told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for
me to get out of the car. Then we received this email yesterday:
WARNING FROM POLICE
THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN
BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--
NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating... You walk
across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into Reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of
your parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the
middle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your
doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the
car. (And maybe your children!)
So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your
money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity
are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window,
just drive away. Remove the paper later. And be thankful that
you read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends
and family, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of
personal information and identification documents, and you
certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Stay safe and please pass this on. _____
