Beware - Wallet Stealing Scam

This is serious.

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever 'Eastern European' scam while out shopping.

Simply dropping into Tesco, in Horley, for a bit of shopping 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 voluptuous 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the boot.

They both start cleaning your windscreen, their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts.

When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift to another supermarket store, in my case the Sainsburys in Crawley.

You agree and they both get in the backseat. On the way, they start undressing, and both get completely naked.

Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over your lap, kissing you and thrusting herself against you, while the other one steals your wallet!

I had my wallet stolen October 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, and 29th. Also Nov 1st, 4th,6th,10th twice yesterday and very likely again this weekend.

P.S. Aldi have wallets on sale for £1.99 each but Lidl are £1.75 and look better.




Happy New Year

Sorry to hear of your misfortune, although I must confess that, in a perverse way, I am rather glad the 'problem' still exists. Problem is, I have seen no trace of it on this side of the pond, but I do promise to investigate fully if it ever does make an appearance here. ;)

I've heard of this scam before and it has caused me great concern.

I have raised the subject locally many times, but sadly, there have been no cases of this happening yet :'(

I battled through the snow to my nearest Tesco which is 17 miles away just to help apprehend these awful people.

Four hours later - and 2 cautions by the local police for loitering and a bad case of frost bite - not a sign.

Guess it isn't my lucky day - again - however I will continue to do my duty. Well one must hold one' end up. I mean.......... Oh you are awful.............
