Whether its a hoax or not, its better to be safe than sorry, if there is something on your back windscreen and its not in your line of vision , just leave it .

It doesn't read like it came from the NZ Police - we don't use the word gas (it's petrol), and would you use 'public parking area' instead of 'carpark'? Plus it's so sexist. Funny that actual police officers are forwarding it around though!

I think whether or not it's a hoax, probably not suck a great idea leaving your car running while you get out to do whatever particualy in a public carpark. ]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2009 14:14:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27377&PID=718432&title=police-warning#718432 <![CDATA[Police Warning : My MIL sent it out to us- she&#039;d...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27377&PID=718424&title=police-warning#718424 Author: fire_engine

My sister sent me this, and thought I'll post it here. No one wants to lose their car, ESPECIALLY with their kids in it.

PASS   IT   ON

WARNING!  WARNING!

Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas. Luckily my friend told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get out of the car.
Then we received this email yesterday:  


WARNING FROM POLICE - THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN  

BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)'  


Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating..... You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You start the engine and shift into Reverse. When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, 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 of 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. They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car. And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car. So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!  


BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED...  


If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away. Remove the paper later. And be thankful that you read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep this going and tell all your friends
