    Default Be careful

    I got this email:

    Pass this on to your kids and friends

    A NEW WAY TO CAR JACK (NOT A JOKE)

    Please keep this circulating...

    You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car, and get inside then
    you start the engine and shift into
    REVERSE, and you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your
    parking space and 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 car-jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off! Your engine was running and 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...

    BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.

    Just drive away and remove the paper that is stuck to your window
    later, and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this to friends and family... especially to women! A purse contains all of your identification, and you
    certainly do NOT want someone getting your home address. They already HAVE your keys!

    thanks for that.. I'll let all my girls know about it.. Although we have bouncers that walk us to our cars, a lot of them live in complexes so this could happen to them on the way to work..
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    Complete bunk:

    http://www.snopes.com/crime/warnings/carjack.asp

    http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_carjacking.htm

    http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/c/carjack.htm

    http://www.breakthechain.org/exclusives/rearwindow.html

    Anytime you get an scare message asking you to "pass it on", it's 99% likely its either a hoax, or at the very least horribly exaggerated. Copy pasting a few words from the message into a search engine will save you a lot of stress.

    Still, if it falls into the hands of a car jacker - kinda a good idea!

    True. Just like that "supposed" hoax about not flashing lights to drivers that don't have their headlights on. Because they will follow you and kill you. Well, it so happens that in NJ this cop warned a couple of girls I know and said it was true and that it has happened. Can never be too careful these days.

    Urban legend or not, it could work if the criminal is patient etc. It's always good to be aware of what could happen.
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.
