Default Scam warning

BE CAREFUL IF SHOPPING IN WALL MART

Just had this forwarded to me...................be Careful out there

Over the last month I have become a victim of a clever Eastern European scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Wall mart for a bit of shopping turned out to be quite an experience. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends....
...
Here's how the scam works: ...Two seriously good-looking voluptuous 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the boot. They both start cleaning your windscreen, their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride downtown.

You agree and they both get in the back seat. On the way, they start undressing, until both are completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over your lap, kissing you, touching you, and thrusting herself against you, while the other one steals your wallet!

I had my wallet stolen November 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th and 29th. On December 1st, 4th, 6th and twice yesterday. So please warn all the older men you know to be on the lookout for this scam. The best times seem to be just before lunch, and about 4:30 in the afternoon.


Happy yule!

Cool

Hopefully, they didn't abscond with your scrip for Viagra/Cialis too!

I know it wasn't YOU, but really? Are people that stupid to have their wallet stolen 14 times in a few weeks?.... I mean really. Unless this is some joke and I'm too stupid to notice.

Why are you putting your shopping into your boots?

Next time carry two wallets, one with real money, the other one with fake money. And as soon as you see those girls, hide real wallet and welcome them and enjoy the show of life time

I don't believe a word the OP said. He's making story just to get attention.
