    *Police Warning


    PLEASE BRING TO THE ATTENTION OF ALL STAFF
    ALL CAR OWNERS AND CAR DRIVERS, PLEASE READ Warning!!!!

    Be aware of new car-jacking scheme.
    You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside. Then you
    lock all your doors, start the engine and shift or put into REVERSE, and
    you look into the rear-view mirror to back out of your parking space and
    you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So,
    you shift the gear stick back into park or neutral, 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!! Your engine was
    running, you would have left your purse in the car and they practically
    mow
    you
    down as they speed off in your car.

    BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED IN
    LONDON/MANCHESTER
    MAKING ITS WAY UP HERE!!!!!!!!
    Just drive away and remove the paper later! It is stuck to your window
    and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this
    to
    friends and family especially to women! A purse contains all
    identification, and you certainly do NOT want someone getting your
    home address. They already HAVE your keys!!! JUST BE AWARE AND TAKE CARE
    IT
    WILL PROBABLY SOON ARRIVE IN YOUR AREA

    Thanks for this, I've sent it to my husband at work and asked him to let everyone else know. I'll send it to friends too.

    There is too much of this sort of thing going on nowadays, we do need to look out for each other, well done.

    There's certainly lots of this kind of spam going on these days and you've just fallen for it by passing it on. Look for the clues ...
