Car Jacking

I am always striving to bring you the latest information available ...


BEWARE OF PAPER IN THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE

A NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKING


Heads up everyone!

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 car jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They may 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 car jacker 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.

Duly noted.
Have a nice Saturday and don't step away from the vehicle.

CRAP!
I guess I'm stuck with my old car now that you've given away my plan.

Back to the drawing board, just like Wile E. Coyote.

p.s. ...and I needed a new purse, too, you bitch.

Not to mention the brand new red stillettos I just bought to match that purse in the front seat. And you wonder why I pulled those bitches out and beat the shit out of them.

I wish some OCD nut would break into my car and clean it out..when I'm not around of course.
Funny..but I can imagine Zane in the red stillettos.
Thanks for the advice.

So, I love this hoax email (http://www.snopes.com/crime/warnings/carjack.asp). If you think about it logically, it isn't a very good one. 1. there is nothing on the rear window to hold down a paper, so the slightest wind could blow away. 2. Walking around a parking lot putting flyers on cars is a noticeable act, and most criminals wouldn't risk being identified. 3. Most parking spaces are head-in, so you'd most likely approach your car from the back and notice the flyer before you got in. 4. If you have to back out of most spaces, couldn't you stand in the way of the car and prevent them from pulling out with out hitting you? Most car thiefs wouldn't be interested in a murder or felony assault charge.

Okay, I admit it, I'm a crazy bubble-burster. (IS that a word?)
