Please friends, read this. it isn't a joke.
This is the new thing these days with people out of work and needing cash. Beware, it's headed our way.
Warning..!!!! Warning..!!!! Warning..!!!!
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas.. Luckily my friend told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get out of the car.. Then we received this email yesterday:
WARNING FROM POLICE
THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN
BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating... You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You start the engine and shift into reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away. Remove the paper later. And be thankful that you read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep this going and tell all your friends

Don't you think that in a public parking lot (especially big box stores and malls that are covered with cameras and security staff) that a person or group of persons going around sticking pieces of paper to the rear windows of cars then hiding would look just a little suspicious? It's easier for someone who wants your car to just break a window and pull out the ignition and start it with a screwdriver than sit around waiting for someone to come back to the car. jail time is less than for carjacking (which has stiff penalties in all states) and they can get off the property faster. Remember criminals don't want to stay in one place any longer than necessary to commit their crime. They want to get in and out ASAP. Hanging around a parking lot waiting for someone who may not show up for hours just isn't part of the MO.
And driving around with pieces of paper in your field of vision will only attract the police who will at least reprimand you for driving with obstructed windsheild.
As for personal identification like drivers license, credit cards etc, there are easier ways to get those too. Like snatching your purse.
It also seems to me that one should be able to see a piece of paper stuck on the windsheild (front or back) and remove it before getting in to the car.
