New Car-Jacking Scheme!

 

IMAGINE THE UNIMAGINABLE:

You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car, and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine, and shift into REVERSE.

You're safe, right?

Wrong!

You then look into the rearview mirror to safely back out of your parking space, noticing a piece of paper . . . some sort of advertisement stuck to your rear window.

So you shift your car into PARK, unlock your doors, and jump out of your vehicle to remove the obstruction to your view, (could be other stuff like smeared ice cream), walking to the rear of your vehicle.

When you reach the back, suddenly a car-jacker comes out from nowhere, jumps into your car, and drives off with your purse and anyone else who was still sitting in your vehicle. As they speed off, they try to run you over . . . then gone from sight before you can can call for help.


BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME!

The cure?

First, drive out of there without getting out of your car! Then when you know you are in a safe area (like your local gas station), remove the obstruction.
