I got this in an email.....just a precaution to everyone out there. Be safe. :)
Subject: Beware of this new trick to car jack your car
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..
Car jackers these days... they're getting too creative. Whatever happened to the good old days of just running up to the car of your choice, flashing your wallet and saying, "Official police business! I need your car!"
*sigh*
