IMPORTANT A friend stopped at a pay-at-the-pump gas station to get
>gas. Once she filled her gas tank and after paying at the pump and starting
>to leave, the voice of the attendant inside came over the speaker. He told
>her that something happened with her card and that she needed to come
>inside to pay. The lady was confused because the transaction showed
>complete and approved. She relayed that to him and was getting ready to
>leave but the attendant, once again, urged her to come in to pay or there'd
>be trouble. She proceeded to go inside and started arguing with the
>attendant about his threat. He told her to calm down and listen carefully:
>
> He said that while she was pumping gas, a guy slipped into the back
>seat of her car on the other side and the attendant had already called the
>police.
>
> She became frightened and looked out in time to see her car door
>open and the guy slip out. The report is that the new gang initiation thing
>is to bring back a woman and/or her car. One way they are doing this is
>crawling under women's cars while they're pumping gas or at grocery stores
>in the nighttime. The other way is slipping into unattended cars and
>kidnapping the women.
>
> Please pass this on to other women, young and old alike. Be extra
>careful going to and from your car at night. If at all possible, don't go
>alone!
> This is real!!
>
> The message:
>
> 1. ALWAYS lock your car doors, even if you're gone for just a
>second!
>
> 2. Check underneath your car when approaching it for reentry, and
>check in the back before getting in.
>
> 3. Always be aware of your surroundings and of other individuals in
>your general vicinity, particularly at night!
