.MEN NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS SCAM:
Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall and
in dark parking lots, etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men. I
wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it.
A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at Lowe's, Home
Depot, Costco, or even Wal-Mart. This one caught me totally by surprise. Over
the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping.
Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic.
Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works: Two nice-looking, college-aged girls will come
over to your car or truck as you are packing your purchases into your
vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with
their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. (It's impossible not to look).
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' but
instead ask for a ride to McDonald's. You agree and they climb into the
vehicle. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them starts
crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen Mar. 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th,
24th, & 29th. Also Apr. 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 26th &
27th, and very likely again this upcoming weekend. So tell your friends to be
careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of us older men. Warn your
friends to be vigilant. Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each.
I found even cheaper ones for $.99 at the dollar store and bought them out in
three of their stores. Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 11 pounds just
running back and forth from Lowe's, to Home Depot, to Costco, Etc. So please,
send this on to all the older men that you know and warn them to be on the
lookout for this scam. (The best times are just before lunch and around
4:30 in the afternoon.) You can't be too careful guys.
