Warning new scam across US, thought you should know !
>>MSG. This is true. Scary!
>>
>>This is something that happened to us on the way back from
>>vacation last week. At first I didn't think much of it until now. The
>>reason we were a little suspicious is we had been riding in a jeep all
>>day with 100 degree temps and we stopped at a truck stop for something
>>to drink.
>>
>>When I was leaving, a young girl followed me out and asked what
>>kind of cologne I was wearing.
>>Well, after 7 hours in the car sweating, I don't think you could
>>tell if I was or was not wearing any cologne. We just got in the jeep
>>and said no thanks.
>>
>>Then it was about 3 weeks ago, I was at a service station in
>>Birmingham getting gas. It was about 9:30 PM. I was approached by 2 men
>>and 2 women in a car. The man that was driving asked me 'What kind of
>>perfume do you wear?' I was a bit confused and I asked him 'Why?' He
>>said, 'We are selling some name brand perfumes, at cheap prices.I said I
>>had no money. He then reached out of the car and handed me paper that
>>was laminated; it had many perfumes on it. I looked quickly at it and
>>gave it back. I said, have no money. He said it is OK, we take check,
>>cash, or credit cards. Then the people in the car began to laugh. I just
>>got in my car and said no thanks.
>>
>>Then I received this e-mail yesterday and it sent chills up my
>>spine.
>>
>>Please read this.. It is no joke. Here is the e-mail I was sent:
>>
>>Dear Friends:
>>
>>
>>I know not all of you are women that I am sending this to, but
>>am hoping you will share this with your wives, daughters, mothers,
>>sisters, etc. Our world seems to be getting crazier by the day. Pipe
>>bombs in mail boxes and sickos in parking lots with perfume. Be careful.
>>I was approached yesterday afternoon around 5:30 PM in the Wal-Mart
>>parking lot by two men asking what kind of perfume I was wearing. Then
>>they asked if I'd like to sample some fabulous scent they were willing
>>to sell me at very reasonable rate. I probably would have agreed had I
>>not received an e-mail warning of a "Wanna smell this neat perfume?"
>>
>>The men continued to stand between parked cars, I guess to wait
>>for someone else to hit on. I stopped a lady going towards them,
>>pointing at them and told her about how I was sent an e-mail at work
>>about someone walking up to you at the malls or in parking lots and
>>asking you to SNIFF PERFUME that they are selling at a cheap price or at
>>least compare to which one you like best.
>>
>>THIS IS NOT PERFUME..... IT IS ETHER!
>>
>>When you sniff it, you'll pass out. They'll take your wallet,
>>your valuables and heaven knows what else. If it were not for this
>>e-mail, I probably would have sniffed the 'perfume' but thanks to! The
>>generosity of an e-mailing friend, I was spared whatever might have
>>happened to me. I wanted to do the same for you.
