warning please read

[dandydoo]

This has just been circilated round our Council

 

ALL CAR OWNERS AND CAR DRIVERS PLEASE READ Warning!!!!

 

Be aware of new car-jacking scheme.

You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside.

Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift or put into reverse.

You look into the rear-view 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 the gear stick back into park or neutral, 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 therefore dependent on your Policy you are not probably covered by your insurance.

 

You would have left your purse/handbag in the car and they practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.

 

BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED IN LONDON AND MANCHESTER AND IS MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY !!!!!!!!

 

Just drive away and remove the paper later! It is stuck to your window and be thankful that you have read this email.

 

I hope you will forward this to friends and family especially to women!

 

A purse contains all identification, and you certainly do NOT want someone getting your home address. They already HAVE your keys!!!

 

JUST BE AWARE AND TAKE CARE IT WILL PROBABLY SOON ARRIVE IN YOUR AREA !!!

Yip and if you do drive ...a sticky on your back windscreen would impinge your visibility and be annoying enough to go out and remove
