*** PLEASE STAY ALERT INFORM Family and Friends ***

A woman stopped at a pay-at-the-pump petrol station to get
fuel. Once she filled her petrol tank and after paying at the
pump and starting to leave, the voice of the attendant inside
came over the speaker. He told her that something happened with
her card and that she needed to come inside to pay.

The lady was confused because the transaction showed complete and
approved. She relayed that to him and was getting ready to leave
but the attendant, once again, urged her to come in to pay or
there'd be trouble. She proceeded to go inside and started
arguing with the attendant about his threat.

He told her to calm down and listen carefully: He said that while
she was filling her car, a guy slipped into the back seat of her car
on the other side and the attendant had already called the police.
She became frightened and looked out in time to see her car door open
and the guy slip out.

The report is that the new gang initiation thing is to bring back
a woman and/or her car. One way they are doing this is crawling
under girls /women's cars while they're filling with petrol or at
stores in at night-time.
The other way is slipping into unattended cars and kidnapping the
women.

Please pass this on to other women, young and old alike. Be extra
careful going to and from your car at night. If at all possible,
don't go alone! This is real!!

This alert has originated from a London company who had the woman
involved in the above instance.

The message:

1. ALWAYS lock your car doors, even if you're gone for just a
second!

2. Check underneath your car when approaching it for re-entry,
and check in the back before getting in.

3. Always be aware of your surroundings and of other individuals
in your general vicinity, particularly at night!

Send this to everyone so your friends can take precaution.

Thanks for posting this again Chris. I think it's very useful for people to read and take care, expecially during the winter months with darkness falling so early.
