Well guys. I just got creeped out by this. Here's my story...
I wake up in the late morning a few days ago after a night of rain, go down to my car in front of my apt. and warm it up. I usually do a visual on the tires and look for dings, ect. and everything was fine. As I pulled out of my parking spot I noticed what looked like a bunch of white paint right where my rear bumper was. So I'm thinking someone messed up my rear end. I exit the apartments and pull over to inspect the back of my car. Everything looks fine, so I go do errands and come back home. I was interested in what it was on the ground bc I knew that huge white spot wasn't there when I parked it the night before... So I look at the mess closely and its a ton of white paper that was exposed to the rain the night before and made a mess exactly under the edge of my bumper.
Maybe a newspaper? Mail? I thought nothing of it. The wind must have tossed paper under my car. I thought no biggie...
Well read what one of my friends posted on myspace right now...
You may have already read this one but it's a good reminder, and a good one to pass on to mom's, daughter's, granddaughters & grandmothers, etc.
BEWARE OF PAPER
ON THE BACK WINDOW
OF YOUR VEHICLE
NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKING
(NOT A JOKE)
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating...
You walk across the parking lot,
unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into Reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror
to back out of your parking space,
you notice a piece of paper stuck to the
middle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, 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.
They practically mow you down
as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies?
I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the car jacker has your car,
your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home
and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS
NOW BEING USED....
If you see a piece of paper
stuck to yo ur back window, just drive away.
Remove the paper later.
And be thankful that you read this e-mail.
I hope you will forward this
to friends and family, especially to women.
A purse contains all kinds of
personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT
want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep
this going.
Thank you.

Big time heads up for us since our cars stick out like mine did that night. Luckily I didn't leave anywhere.
