Default Home Depot Scam Alert

(I got this message from one of our regular Forum members who was too ashamed to post it himself.)

A "Heads Up" for those of us men who may be regular Home Depot
customers.

I recently 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 20-21 year-old girls come over to your
car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk. They both
start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their
breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts.
It's impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a
tip, they say "No" and instead ask you for a ride to another Home
Depot or Lowes.

You agree and they get in the back seat. 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 November 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th,
17th, 20th & 24th. Also December 1st, 4th, twice on the 6th,
three times just yesterday, and very likely this coming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful.

Take care

This thread is useless without pictures!

Another safety tip to add: Always carry your wallet in front your pocket.

Happy Holidays

Just for you Late bloomer



Enough is enough i called the cops

They arrived quickly and arrested them in short order.


I felt the least I could do is buy these officers in blue a drink after hours.

While there i saw OBG bless his heart working his own undercover sting.

Unfortunlety he had the WRONG suspect in his sights

This thread was going great until that last picture.... OBG must have some sort of fetish that he hides cause his wife looks nothing like that at all.
