To the men warn your loved ones!
To the women remember this!
About a month ago there was a woman standing by the Mega
Mall entrance passing out flyers to all the women going in.
The woman had written the flyer herself to tell about an
experience she had, so that she might warn other
women.
The previous day, this woman had finished
shopping, went out to her car and discovered that she had
a flat. She got the jack out of the trunk and began to
change the flat. A nice man dressed in business suit and
carrying a briefcase walked up to her and said,
'I notice you're changing a flat tire.
Would you like me to take care of it for you?'
The woman was grateful for his offer and accepted his help.
They chatted amiably while the man changed the flat, and
then put the flat tire and the jack in the trunk, shut it
and dusted his hands off.
The woman thanked him profusely, and as she was about to
get in her car, the man told her that he left his car around
on the other side of the mall, and asked if she would
mind giving him a lift to his car. She was a little
surprised and asked him why his car was on the other side.
He explained that he had met an old friend in the mall whom
he hadn't seen for some time and they had a bite to eat
and visited for a while; he got turned around in the mall
and left through the wrong exit, and now he was running late
and his car was clear around on the other side of the mall.
The woman hated to tell him 'no' because he had
just rescued her from having to change her flat tire all by
herself, but she felt uneasy. Then she remembered seeing the
man put his briefcase in her trunk before shutting it and
before he asked her for the ride to his car.
She told him that she'd be happy to drive him to his car, but she
just remembered one last thing she needed to buy. She said
she would only be a few minutes; he could sit down in her
car and wait for her; she would be as quick as she could be.
She hurried into the mall, and told a security guard what
had happened; the guard came out to her car with her, but
the man had left..
They opened the trunk, took out his locked briefcase and
took it down to the police station. The police opened it
(ostensibly to look for ID so they could return it to the
man). What they found was rope, duct tape and knives.
When the police checked her 'flat' tire, there was
nothing wrong with it; the air had simply been let out. It
was obvious what the man's motive was, and obvious
that he had carefully thought it out in advance.
The woman was blessed to have escaped harm. How much worse
it would have been had she waited in the car while the man
fixed the tire, or if she had a baby strapped into a car
seat. Or if she'd gone against her judgment and given
him a lift.
I'd like you to forward this ....
It may save a life.
A candle is not dimmed by lighting another
candle.
I was going to send this to the ladies only; but guys, if you
love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you may
want to pass it on to them as well.
Send this to any one you know that may need to be reminded that the
world we live in has a lot of crazies in it....better safe than sorry.
PLEASE BE SAFE !!
JUST A WARNING TO ALWAYS BE ALERT !!!
Never let your guard down.
SOMETIMES, THAT FEELING IN YOUR GUT IS THE VOICE OF GOD.
TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS!!
