This scam is still going on, shame the police can't go under cover and stop this in its tracks.

Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall and in dark parking lots, etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men. I wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it.
A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at B&Q; Home Depot, Morrisons, or even Asda. This one caught me totally by surprise. Over the last month I became a victim of a clever ...scam while out shopping. 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 nice looking, college-age girls will come over to your car or truck as you are packing your purchases into your vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. (It's impossible not to look). When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' but instead ask for a ride to McDonald's.
You agree and they climb into the vehicle. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet. I’ve had my wallet stolen October 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, again on the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th; also November 1st, 4th, 8th, twice on the 16th & 17th, and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of us older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.
Wilkinson's has wallets on sale for £2.99 each. I found even cheaper ones for 99p at the Poundshop and bought them out in three of their stores.
Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and forth from Morrisons, to B&Q; Home Depot, to Asda.
So please, send this on to all the older men that you know and warn them to be on the lookout for this scam. (The best times are just before lunch and around 4:30 in the afternoon.)

Oh boy, can you imagine ............. can you imagine .....
While slightly a different variation of this technique, I carry an empty wallet while traveling overseas. I have a couple of Ones in it and fake credit cards I get in the mail and I even check it every now-and-then.
