Clever Scam – taking advantage of older men
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. This will only become more
commonplace as the weather warms up next spring. A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular Lowe's, Home
Depot, or Costco customers. This one caught me 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 seriously good-looking 20-something girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to McDonalds.
You agree and they get into the back seat. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen June 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, & 29th. Also July 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 26th & 28th, three times last Monday and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.
Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99. I found cheaper ones for $1.99 at K- Mart and bought them out. Also, you never will get to eat at McDonalds. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and forth to Lowe's, Home Depot, and Costco.

Not in Washington State. No alcohol in strip clubs. But that's OK. I'm usually drunk with hormones. And this way I don't have to spend extra money at the hardware store.

Well, the state does have a few other things to commend it. And I live right across the river from Portland, and Seattle is not that far from BC, so it's not much of a hardship. But I have to concur that the law is silly.

This law had the unintended consequence of making strip clubs legal to eighteen year olds - totally nude BTW. The community at the edge of the University district closed down a great live music venue when it's permit came up (The Rainbow) only to have a strip club replace it. Lol.
Gotta love puritan legal geniuses.

I'm waiting for a poorly worded pro-public-breast-feeding law to be enacted that accidentally legalizes nudity. Or outlaws clothing. Or extends the drinking age to zero.

I always keep a selection of adult beverages in my car just in case such opportunities arise. To date, no such luck - but then I've been lurking in Walmart parking lots.

You're going to see more and more of this business as the American population continues to get older. It was Lowe's, Home Depot and Costco you say?

Strange you should say: That happened to me just last week but the 'girls' were in their late 50's.
Mind you, I still fell for it but now I have bought a new sports car to see if that works - just for scientific experimentation. of course.
