Wanna Smell This Perfume? Scam
Received this from a friend...........
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, mother,
sisters, etc. Our world seems to be getting crazier by the day.
Pipes bombs in mailboxes and sickos in parking lots with perfume. Be
careful. I was approached yesterday afternoon around 3:30 pm in the
Walmart parking lot at University Drive in Des Moines, by two males
asking what kind of perfume I was warning. Then they asked if I'd
like to sample some fabulous scent they were willing to sell me at a
very reasonable rate.
I probably would have agreed had I not received an email some weeks
ago warning of a 'Wanna smell this neat perfume?' scam. 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.
THIS IS NOT PERFUME...IT IS ETHER! When you sniff it, you'll pass
out. And 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 emailing
friend, I was spared whatever might have happened to me.
I wanted to do the same for you. PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL YOUR
WOMEN FRIENDS, AND PLEASE BE ALERT, AND BE AWARE. IF YOU ARE A MAN
AND RECEIVE THIS, PASS IT ON TO YOUR WOMEN FRIENDS.
Ladies this happened to me yesterday and I didn't smell the perfume
either, thanks to this email. This is true. Believe me, I know. I was
over by Big Lots in the parking lot at lunch time when I was
approached
So either day or night, it does not matter. There were 3 guys
together when I was approached. I called the police when I got back
to my desk. Like the email says above, LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS.
