Scam for the day

Rico says his friend Tex sends this:
Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall and in dark parking lots, etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men, and I wanted to pass it on in case you hadn't heard about it:
A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at Lowe's, Home Depot, Costco, or even Wal-Mart. This one caught me totally by surprise. Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works: two nice-looking college-age girls will come over to your car or truck as you are packing your purchases into your vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy t-shirts. (It's impossible not to  look). When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No', but instead ask for a ride to McDonald's.
You agree, and they climb into the vehicle. On the way, they start  undressing. Then one of them starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen January 4th, 9th, 10th, twice  on the 15th, again on the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th. Also on February 1st, 4th, 8th, twice on the 16th & 17th, and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.
As a side note, Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each. I found even cheaper ones for $.99 at  the Dollar Store and bought them out in three of their stores.
Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's.  I've already lost eleven pounds just running back and forth from Lowe's to Home Depot to Wal-Mart.
So, please, send this on to all the older men that you know and warn them to be on  the lookout for this scam. (The best times are just before lunch and around 4:30 in the afternoon...)
