Default X-mas scam..i just got this email

Over the last month I 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-something 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 is impossible not to look. When
you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you
for a ride to McDonalds..

You agree and they get into 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 Sept 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the
15th,17th, 20th, 24th, & 29th. Also Oct 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th,
16th, 23rd, 26th & 28th, three times last Monday and very likely again
this upcoming weekend.

So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take
advantage of older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.

Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each. I found cheaper
ones for $1.99 at K- Mart and bought them out. Also, you never will get
to eat at McDonalds. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and
forth to Lowe's, Home Depot, and Costco.

Hahaha
That is one of the oldest scams in the book.

That's what the hookers do.

Stay in Chicago and you will learn about all of them .

Hope you learned your lesson. (Sorry ,but you do not have magnetic attraction as you thought) none of us do,except my Brother.

Sounds like I need to buy a few dozen wallets and head out to the stores.
