A “heads up” for those men who may be regular Home Depot customers.
Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.
Here's how the scam works:
Two seriously good looking 20 or so girls come over to your car as you are packing your materials into your vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a towel and Windex and with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts it almost impossible not to look.
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say '”no” and instead ask you for a ride to McDonalds. You agree and they get in the back of the truck. On the way, they start undressing then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen June 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 29th and again on July 1st, the 4th and twice on the 8th, 16th and the 23rd.
The solution is easy. Tell them to get away from your truck and dont take them anywhere. Youre lucky they didnt try to claim 'attempted rape' and your life, your reputation is shot before you have a chance to prove yourself. Youve got the word of two people against yours.
Another warning. We've had people come into our store (another home improvement store) and complain there are a couple of guys in the parking lot offering 50 dollar gift cards for 10 bucks. Thats a no-brainer....those cards are useless, stolen and anyone who falls for that (I hate to say it) didnt think. Duh. Dont buy if its 'too good to be true'. Its that simple!!
PS How could you have fallen for that one more than once?? Or did I read that correctly?

So tell your friends to be careful.
BTW Wal-Mart has wallets on sale 1.99 each.
Where is this Home Depot located? Just in the interest of protecting others, of course.

RoadDog, and Tek_Freek - Just make sure your wallet is empty, and get one of those cheap wallets at Walmart!
