Default Car jackings! Beware!

Carjacking is getting to be a bigger and bigger problem in Houston, even in Santa Fe. For your consideration.



Received this from a friend, something to think about....

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

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.

Dont get any ideas WTL. you'll get arrested and we need your boat at guntersville.

I'v eheard of them doing this before. it's insane how they think of this stuff, yet have to steal cars...

But that just goes to show you that by publisizing this method they are basically giving people ideas.

Texas, I don't mean you are gonna add to crime- nobody on here is that desperate - except zook - but his is a desperation for latinas and not stealing cars. I meant that whenever a police department releases a statement like this, they are making sure this method will travel farther quiker than it might have.

yep, it's getting to be that time of year around here too. That's the only thing I miss about cutting meat in the grocery store. The one I was at was right down the road from HopeMills lake. On a weekend in the summer...it's a wonder I still got all my fingers.
