Warning for the older guys...be careful out there

[Jethro Bodine]

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 unmentionables 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 August 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th and again on September 1st, 4th, 8th, twice on the 11th & 12th, 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

Thanks SFMIKE. :thumb:
Just saw this and just about pissed myself laughing. ound:

Since Alex reopened this thread, I will deliver some very sad news about Shoreline

Many of the regulars know Gwen. if you have seen her once you will never forget her. Sadly, I saw her last week and she was so sad. Even tears. As it turns out she is older than I thought she was. The next day was her birthday, and she was about to turn 24. Most are aware that the magic number 24 means mandatory retirement from Shoreline. She says she will miss all of us, and likely will spen her later years in a micro downtown.

So, if anybody finds out where she is now, please let me know. I will share that info with others who are members.

Nope, see post #44, I most certainly did not re-open this thread...

lost wallet......

Seems I left my wallet at shoreline monday night, if any of you nice chaps who frequent this highly private establishment could have a peak under the table/bed while there it would be most appreciated.

I am out of town and not able to search on my own presently. Called mamasan who claims she will look but mixed feelings as to ever getting a response from her on this one.

If found, you can keep the money, just want my credit cards back.........

We Men!!! We love being taken advantage of, don't we guys? ........ and not just once, we want to be taken advantage of again and again and again .... !!

Thanks to Summerbreeze for once again bringing this back to life. Not so much for the original post, but reading the comments of those who are either so dense, or simply do not possess a sense of humor. Sad, truly sad.
