Default New Scam - Beware! Very Effective

A WARNING TO ALL YOU GUYS. BEWARE!


Home Depot Scam

Be Careful - A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular Home Depot
customers.

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping at
Home Depot. 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 very pretty 20 or 21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are
packing your shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping your windshield
with a rag and Windex, with their huge breasts almost falling out of their
skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to stare.

When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you
for a ride to another Home Depot. You agree and they get in the back seat.
On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the
front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your
wallet.

I had my wallet stolen July 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, and
24th and 29th.

Also August 1st, 3rd, twice on the 4th, three times on the 7th and very
likely again this coming weekend.

So tell your friends to be careful.

P.S. Wal-Mart <http://www.walmart.com/> has wallets on sale for $2.99 each

I'm going to buy a couple dozen wallets and start hanging around my Home Depot parking lot. Maybe I can volunteer to be an undercover cop and gather as much evidence as possible against these dastardly con artists.

Fred,

Have you checked Frenchy's stash for your missing wallets lately?

Dang, I just decided to stop carrying a throw down.

I wonder if a wad of cash works just as well.

Guys, do you a throw down cash will work???

TICK WARNING !!!!

I hate it when people forward bogus warnings...but this one is real, and
it's important. So please send this warning to everyone on your e-mail
list:

If someone comes to your front door saying they are conducting a survey on
ticks and asks you to take your clothes off and dance around with your
arms up,
DO NOT DO IT!! IT IS A SCAM!!
They only want to see you naked.

I wish I'd gotten this yesterday. I feel so stupid


Ron
