SCAM!!! Watch out guys!!!

Ok...I don't know if this has been posted here or not...But I thought I better post it, just to be on the safe side. Besides I'd hate to think that any of my fellow Titan owners got SCAMMED like I did!

I can't believe I fell for it either...

How stupid can I be...

Anyway...

This is a heads up for those of you who may be regular Home Depot or Lowes customers. 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 20 or 21 year-old girls come over to your car or truck, as you are packing your supplies 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 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 another Home Depot or Lowes.

You agree and they get in the back seat...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 on September 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th & 24th. Also on October 1st, 4th, twice on the 6th, three times just yesterday, and very likely this coming weekend.

Seriously guys...Watch out for this SCAM!

And don't forget to tell your friends to be careful...

Re: SCAM!!! Watch out guys!!!

I have been staking out my local Home Depot and Lowes for most of the morning to see if I can catch the perpetrators of this crime. So far no luck. Could be that it is kind of cold here.
