    Police warning

    Not sure how true this is, but sounds like what scum would do.





    WARNING!!!! Warning..!!!! Warning..!!!!

    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.
    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.

    still its something to be aware of, the way scum do carjacking nowadays is getting worse and worse

    When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas


    sounds like something thats started over in the US... if they are saying 'gas' instead of petrol... but it would not surprise me one bit if something like this were to continue over here
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    "Forced induction" sounds like some sort of sexual assault.

    the trick is to have a massive opelaus sticker on your back window therefor creating the rearwindow pointless... so you never ever use ur rearview mirror again!
