NWR BUT VERY IMPORTANT!!!

FMIL works for South Country School District and she said that the school distributed a posting to all teachers (not sure about parents) stating that a local gang has begun initiating its newest members in a 'new'way.

Apparently, the gang members will stop unsuspecting females when they are leaving the Supermarket, gas station, or ATM and say that they (the woman) dropped a credit card. Then when the woman turns to look, they push her into a car and kidnap her.

FMIL also said that a woman was at a local gas station pumping gas when they attendant began calling to her saying that her credit card did not work. When she went inside to straighten things out, the attendant told her that a man had climbed into the back seat of her car. ALWAYS look in your back seat before you get in your car...I have dont it for years as per my mother when I started driving.

She said that they particularly target women who get gas or are in shopping centers at night (supermarket)

I dont know how true or supported these allegations are (we hear so many false ones everyday through e-mail) but BE CAREFUL and BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS!!!

I am a social worker and I work with a lot of gang members so I wouldnt put it past these people. Just be careful!!!

So Scary.

so scary, whether its true or not we should always be careful. I always check my backseat. I always use my debit card during the day at the gas station. I dont leave my car. I am rarely along outside at night.

I think back to how I acted when I was a tennager.. walking through the woods to friends houses a few blocks away at night. How could I! Was I crazy or are things scarier now? I would NEVER do that now.

I've been getting these warnings in emails. The really scary part is that crazy people could get this email, think it's a great idea and try it for themselves

Thats a good point

It is scary - whether this is true or not we can all take precautions.

Always take your keys with you when you are at the gas station. If you need to leave you car for any reason always lock it to prevent any unwanted passengers.

Very scary and creepy!! It's good to be cautious, esp when we're walking around with rocks on our hands!! That bling-bling makes us even more of a target, I'm sure!

OMG!!!!! This world is crazy! You have to watch out where ever you are. You just never know and it's scary!

Thanks for the info.
