A new scam targeting older men:

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. I wanted to pass it on in case you haven'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 Dec 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, again on the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th. Also Jan 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 us older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.

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 11 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.)

 

Now that is some funny stuff. Thanks for the warning and the laugh.

 

Dude! Yer 24!
Just THINK what they would do to an old guy like me!
Oh the horror!

Is Lowes still open at this hour?
Anyone know?

 

I've been through a 4 year and a 5 year relationship where the opposite sex lost their minds on me... I have worked since I was legally allowed to and have worked a "real job" getting up at 5am and going into NYC since I was 16 or so.. I spend most of my time at either school or work, fearing for my future.. Paying bills and hoping to someday become what I want to be. I invest my money in stocks and have a roth IRA, and I will someday convert my somewhat risky investments to fixed assets.. I am an old man at heart . I'm not as dumb as I look lol

 

Two women lost their minds while being with you. You must stop using anti-freeze as their tea sweetner. Squirrel Crusher

 

Uh...wouldn't that be their kidneys?


Writing this as I'm sitting in my car at Home Depot.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be heading to Home Depot and then Lowe's.

 

Now that is some funny **** right there. I could hardly quit laughing!

 

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

 

Sounds like most of us on here...Been there...Done that. I do miss NYC though since I was born in Manhatten...Get homesick every now and then.

 

I've never wanted to be victimized so badly in my life...

 

D-S, if you can carry two women AND a load of home improvement supplies in your Crossie, you're more of a man than I am
