Just got this warning via email, so thought i would share it....

It was about 3 weeks ago, I was at the Shell station getting diesel.

It was about 11:30pm. I was approached by 2 men and 2 women in a car.

The man that was driving asked me 'What kind of perfume do you wear?'

I was a bit confused and I asked him 'Why?' He said 'We are selling some name

brand perfumes, at cheap prices.' I said I had no money. He

then reached out of the car and handed me paper that was laminated; it

had many perfumes on it. I looked quickly at it and gave it back.

I said, I have no money. He said it is OK, we take check, cash or credit

cards.

Then the people in the car began to laugh. I just got in my car and said

No thanks. Then I received this e-mail yesterday and it sent chills up my

spine. Please read this. It is not joke. Here is the e-mail I was sent.

Dear Friends:

I know not all of you are women that I am sending this to, but I am hoping

you will share this with your wives, daughters, mother, sisters,etc.

Our world seems to be getting crazier by the day. Pipe bombs in mailboxes

and sickos in parking lots with perfume. Be careful. I was approached

yesterday afternoon around 3:30 PM in the Tesco car park near the

University of Ulster by two males who asked what kind of perfume I was

wearing. Then they asked if I'd like to sample some fabulous scent they

were willing to sell me at a very reasonable rate.

I probably would have agreed had I not received an e-mail some weeks ago

warning of a 'Wanna smell this neat perfume?'scam.

Someone walks up to you at the malls or in parking lots and asking you to

SNIFF PERFUME that they are selling at a cheap price.

THIS IS NOT PERFUME...IT IS ETHER!

When you sniff it, you'll pass out. They'll take your wallet, your

valuables and heaven knows what else. The men continued to stand between

parked cars, I guess to wait for someone else to hit on. I stopped a lady

going towards them, pointing at them and told her about how I was sent an

e-mail at work.

If it were not for this e-mail, I probably would have sniffed the 'perfume'

but thanks to the generosity of an e-mailing friend, I was spared whatever

might have happened to me. I wanted to do the same for you.

PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL YOUR WOMEN FRIENDS AND PLEASE BE ALERT AND BE

AWARE. IF YOU ARE A MAN AND RECEIVE THIS, PASS IT ON TO! YOUR WOMEN FRIENDS.

Ladies, this happened to me yesterday and I didn't smell the perfume either,

thanks to this email. This is true. Believe me, I know. I was over by the

car park at lunch time when I was approached. So or night, it does not matter.There

were 3 guys together when I was approached. I called the police when I got

back to my home. Like the email says above, LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS.

YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY,CO-WORKERS, whoever. It helped me.
 
Know you mean well posting this,

but those sorts of e-mails really do not make much sense once you take time to think about it - i.e almost all garages have cctv in operation, likewise Tesco's carparks...also they are hardly areas with no witnesses around are they?

If in doubt on anything your sent worth a look in truthorfiction:
