Fw: CAR JACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)

Just last weekend on Friday night someone parked in a public parking
area. As he drove away he noticed a sticker on the rear window of
his car. When he took it off after he got home, it was a receipt for
gas. Luckily his friend told him not to stop as it could be someone
waiting for him to get out of the car. Then he received this email
yesterday:

'WARNING FROM POLICE - BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR
VEHICLE

NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)'

This is how it happens.

You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You
start the engine and shift into Reverse.

1. 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.

2. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the
carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off.

3. 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. So now
the carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your
keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!

4. 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 received and
read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends and family,
especially to women.

5. A purse or briefcase contains all kinds of personal information
and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to
fall into the wrong hands.
