Beware, Warning: Scam for Older Men
Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at shopping centres
and in dark car parks etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men. I
wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it.
A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at Bunnings, Mitre
10, or even K-Mart. This one caught me totally by surprise.
Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping.
Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't
be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works:
Two nice-looking, university-aged girls will come over to your car or ute as
you are packing your stuff into your vehicle. They both start wiping your
windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of
their skimpy T-shirts. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say
'No' but instead ask for a ride to McDonald's.
You agree and they get in. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of
them starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen February 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th,
17th, 20th, 24th, & 29th. Also March 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th,
23rd, 26th and very likely again this upcoming weekend. I have been
away most of April.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of
us older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.
K-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each. I found even cheaper ones for 99c
at the two dollar store and bought them out in three of their stores.
Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 9 kilos just
running back and forth from Bunnings, to Mitre 10, to K-Mart etc.
So please, send this on to all the older men that you know and warn them to
be on the lookout for this scam. The best times are just before lunch and
around 4:30 in the afternoon.
