Received this in an email:
Hey All,
I send a mass email maybe once a year, and this is important enough to be it.
Sadly I was the victim of a scam. Please read my story and be on the look out because no one is immune.
Forewarned is forearmed!
Home Depot Parking Lot Scam
For you guys who may be regular Home Depot customers or know someone who is:
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 hot looking 25ish year-old women come over to your car as you are loading your items into the trunk. They both start washing your windshield with a rag and Windex, 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 Thanks' and instead ask you for a ride to another shopping center. You agree and they get in the backseat.
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 June 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, & 24th 29th. Also July 1st, 5th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 24th, 25th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful.
P.S. Walmart has wallets on sale for $2.99.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Don't fall for it, it's a scam. And even if it isn't, you don't want to participates with lotteries anyway. Do something more usefull with your money, like burning it.

This is useful information even if Lugh Shiva is a spammer.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?

Thanks for posting a warning.. There may be situations like this.. But why you were affected again and again? Better go anywhere along with friends or simply don't accept these fake offers...

Spammers are clearly not too bright, it's called a joke, CMY.
Worth the 3 bucks I'd say. |

For that scam, he doesn't need any friends and probably wouldn't want any around, anyway.
Now, where did you say this Home Depot is?
