true.
Scary!
This is something that happened to us on the way back from vacation
last week. At first I didn't think much of it until now. The reason we
were a little suspicious is we had been riding in a jeep all day with
100 degree temps and we stopped at a truck stop for something to drink.
When I was leaving, a young girl followed me out and asked what kind of
cologne I was wearing. Well, after 7 hours in the car sweating, I don't
think you could tell if I was or was not wearing any cologne.
We just got in the jeep and said no thanks.
Then it w as about 3 weeks ago, I was at a service station in Birmingham
getting gas. It was about 9:30 pm. I was approached by 2 men and 2
women in a car. The man that was driving asked me 'What kind of perfume
do you wear?'
I was a bit confused and I asked him 'Why?' He said, 'We are selling
some name brand perfumes, at cheap prices.' I said I had no money.
He then reached out of the car and handed me paper that was laminated;
it had many perfumes on it. I looked quickly at it and gave it back.
I said, have no money. He said it is OK, we take check, cash, or credit
cards.
Then the people in the car began to laugh. I just got in my car and
said no thanks.
Then I received this e-mail yesterday and it sent chills up my spine.
Please read this. It is no joke. Here is the e-mail I was sent:
Our world seems to be getting crazier by the day. Pipe bombs in mail
boxes and sickos in p arking lots with perfume.
Be careful. I was approached yesterday afternoon around 5:30 PM in the
Wal-Mart parking lot by two males asking what kind of perfume I was
wearing. Then they asked if I'd like to sample some fabulous scent they
were willing to sell me at very reasonable rate. I probably would have
agreed had I not received an e-mail warning of a "Wanna smell this neat
perfume?" scam.
The men continued to stand between parked cars, I guess to wait for
someone else to hit on. I stopped a lady going towards them, pointing
at them and told her about how I was sent an e-mail at work about
someone walking up to you at the malls or in parking lots and asking
you to SNIFF PERFUME that they are selling at a cheap price or at least
compare to which one you like best.
THIS IS NOT PERFUME...IT IS ETHER!
When you sniff it, you'll pass out. They'll take your wallet, your
valuables and heaven knows what else. If it were not for this e- mail, I
probably would have sniffed the 'perfume' but thanks to the generosity
of an e-mailing friend, I was spared whatever might have happened to
me. I wanted to do the same for you.
PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL YOUR WOMEN FRIENDS AND PLEASE BE ALER T
AND BE AWARE. I YOU ARE A MAN AND RECEIVE THIS, PASS IT ON TO YOUR
WOMEN FRIENDS.
Ladies, this happened to me yesterday and I didn't smell the perfume
either, thanks to this email. This is true. Believe me, I know. I was
over by Big Lots in the parking lot at lunch time when I was
approached.
So either day or night, it does not matter. There were 3 guys together
when I was approached. I called the police when I got back to my desk.
Like the email says above, LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS - YOUR FRIENDS,
FAMILY, CO-WORKERS, whomever. It helped me. The first thing that popped
into my head was this e-mail warning.
MAKE SURE YOUR DAUGHTERS KNOW!
This is not BS!
