Car Jacking - Beware!

I though would be good to share what ever you've heard or came across, so everyone here can be a little more aware of what's out there.


This actually happened to a Man not a woman recently in KL

Imagine: You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift into REVERSE, and you look into the rear-view mirror to back out of your parking space and you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you shift into PARK, unlock your doors and jump out off your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view.
When you reach the back of your car, that is when the car-jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off!!
Your engine was running, you would have your purse in the car and they practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED. Just drive away and remove the paper that is stuck to your window LATER, and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this to friends and family especially to women!

FYI: This is an urban legend -- there's no documented evidence of it actually happening.

I have to say malaysia is getting very out of hand in the way they handled the crimes there it's getting from bad to worse and they love those flashy cars like honda, Mercs and of course toyota beware and be always on alert when u drive it! Lock u're door after the custom checking in the malaysia point u never know who's aiming!
