    I'm calling Bravo Sierra on this scam. I'm going to have to check it out for myself. Possibly several times, just to be sure.

    scam

    A 'heads up' for you guys who may be regular Home Depot customers. This one caught me 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 seriously good-looking
    girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the
    trunk. (They said they just turned 18)



    They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with
    their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is
    impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they
    say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to McDonalds. You agree and
    they get into your car. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of
    them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you,
    while the other one steals your wallet.



    I had my wallet stolen April 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th,
    17th, 20th, 24th & 29th. Also May 1st & 3rd, twice on the 9th,
    10th, 15th, 16th & 17th, three times on Monday and very likely
    again this upcoming weekend. So tell your friends to be careful.



    Also, Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each -- I found
    cheaper ones for $1.99 at Target and bought them out. Also, you never
    will get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 11 pounds just running
    back and forth to Home Depot.

    An email forward, thought I'd share

    man do i ever feel sorry for you. tell ya what, just to give you a break jackie and i will take your car and go to home depot for you this weekend. let me know if i can help.

    FelloFrom a tactical standpoint, you should probably avoid IWB holsters on this sort of investigative outing. Sounds like they would just be in the way.

    With my attitude, if anyone deserves to have their stunt wallet stolen by a couple of naked 18 year old girls, it is I. Ask anyone!
