That's scary...i am always aware when ppl approach me, idk for some reason i always look behind me, if it were me in that car i wouldnt have opened either, i guess i always listened to my mom about strangers lol But that could happen to anyone, scary cause they can carry weapons. That makes me want to go buy mace or something |
Thanks for sharing...it could happen. |
That is scary! Thank you for sharing. Growing up in a small town, I've got like...Small-Town Syndrome or something lol. I'm not as cautious as I should be. So thanks for the reminder! |
This world is getting to where we can't let ANYONE approach us - even if we did drop money who would think it could be a life endangering situation ? That's very scary is right. |
That's scary. I'm from a small town also and probably wouldn't think about be suspicious of some like that. Thanks for the warning. |
Very scary, thanks for sharing ! |
OMG .... this is scary ..... :eek: |
Doesn't really matter if the email story was actually true - it could easily happen. Thanks for the reminder to be wary. |
Thanks for sharing. I have a daughter that is 28 years old and probably would have opened the window. She trusts everbody and assumes that everyone in trustworthy. She has never met a stranger. She is so kind hearted and can't stand the thought of hurting someone's feelings. You can bet I will send this to her. |
i would be the type to open the door:( |
I think it's a great warning, but that particular story is listed as an urban myth. snopes.com: Baton Rouge Serial Killer |
