Word or warning
Guys and gals I received this at work today for our information. I thought that it was pretty important so thought I would share it with you lot..
Dont know if anyone else has posted this but what the hell
ALL CAR OWNERS AND CAR DRIVERS PLEASE READ
Be aware of new car-jacking scheme.
You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift or put into reverse. You look into the rear-view mirror to back out of your parking space and You notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window.
So, you shift the gear stick back into park or neutral, 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-jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off!! Your engine was running, you would have left your purse in the car and they practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED IN GLASGOW AND MANCHESTER
AND IS MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY!!!!!!!!
Just drive away and remove the paper later! It is stuck to your Window and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this to friends and family especially to women! A purse contains all identification, and you certainly do NOT want someone getting your home address. They
already HAVE your keys!!!

yeah its one of those hoaxes alright.
BUT, i've stopped leaving keys in my car at all since a mate of mine was emptying shopping from his boot outside his house in leeds, 2 lads jumped in the front and drove off.
police found the car about an hour later, alloys and suspension smashed.
insurance wouldnt pay out because the keys had been left in the ignition...
it wasnt some kind of elaborate carjacking scam, it just was 2 opportunist scallies.
