Warning Girls!

[Nicky.]

If anyone (usually male, but could be turned to female to fool you) stops you in the street/shopping centre etc. and asks you if you are interested in some perfume whilst handing you some paper do not smell it. It's a new scam. The paper is laced with Ether (an anesthetic) which will make you pass out and then they will mug you. It recently happened in Birmingham, so be aware.


Just found this, not good!

It's being aimed at girls / women! Xx

Heres another scam involving a piece of paper being stuck on the back window of peoples' cars. The person would get in their car, put it in reverse to back out of their parking space, look in the rearview mirror, and see a piece of paper stuck to their window. So, leaving the car running, they would dash out to pull it off, but before they could get back in their cars, someone would jump out, get in their car which still had the keys in it, and take off in it, sometimes almost running the owner of the car over.
Again not new but worth knowing.
