Warning: New carjacking scheme.

This applies to both men and women.

This is the scenario:

You finish your shopping and walk across the parking lot to your car.

You unlock the door and get in, lock your door and start your car. You shift it into reverse and look behind you to begin backing out of your parking spot.

Thats when you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of your back window. You shift into park and quickly get out of your car to remove that piece of paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view.

This is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere. Almost running you down as they speed away in your car. And ladies, I bet your purse is still in the car. So now the carjacker not only has your car but your money, your home address and your keys. Your identity, home and family are now at risk.

Don't be fooled. Don't stop to read the paper on the back window, Check it later after you are a safe distance from the parking lot or at home.

This is not a joke and has happened.

If you find a piece of paper stuck to the back of your car window, be thankful you read this notice.

Be safe and on your gaurd.
