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 car hacker's 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 is 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 and documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wronghands. Please keep this going. Thank you.

I was forwarded that by a friend of mine. I am now so careful when I get into my car. It could happen so quickly just like that.

Oh thank you for helping us all out by informing us of this. I live in Scotland so maybe I could do this to a few people before everyone finds out. Just got to pass my test first though.

I thought in America the usual reaction would be to pull out your 45 and blow them away! In South Africa they have a system where you stop and get out to open the gates to your house and they jump in a drive off with your car and bag - same result. Do you know that in the UK, if the police notice that a car thief is not wearing his seat belt they are not allowed to give chase in case the thief crashes the car and hurts himself!! It's enough to make one wish that we could have a 45 available too!
