Home Depot scam? 0_o

Shivercide · 11-02-2008, 09:00 PM

I got this in an e-mail from a friend, and it sounds quite scary. So to all you guys out there, read this and watch out!

Quote:

Friends, beware... this could happen to you! I understand that this happens at Lowe's, too, so don't desert Home Depot just yet. A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular Home Depot customers. This one caught me by surprise. 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 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your stuff 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 June 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, & 29th; also, July 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, and three times last Saturday; and, very likely again, next weekend. So tell your friends to be careful.

P.S. Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each.

^Um. I'd say be wary of this email simply because the description of how often that person got his wallet stolen is a little ridiculous. After the second or third time, wouldn't you just NOT LET THEM IN YOUR CAR?!

*shrugs* I'm not a man and I don't frequent Home Depot or Lowe's, so I probably wouldn't have a problem anyway...but I'd say, you know, if women start washing your windshield with their breasts...just don't let 'em in your damn car.

EDIT: Okay. Shut up. I'm having a slow day, evidently.

My first reaction was what on earth is Home Depot? Then I got the joke. A bit faster than Julieann maybe XD

MacNCheezPleez · 11-03-2008, 08:46 AM

lol, it would be funnier if there weren't actually men that dumb. and...

"for those men that may be regular home depot customers" ?!

I shop at home depot more than I shop at the mall. I actually need to run up there today. (Kalin loves power tools

) Let some damn hoe try to get in my fuckin car...

In all seriousness...watch out for the mexicans. Most are harmless, they just want a job, but if you have a vagina, and you're under 500 pounds...you could be at risk. Learning spanish is on my to-do list so that I can know what those fuckers are saying.

I don't get it.

Jane · 11-03-2008, 11:54 AM

Okay, well... upon reading this, I'm assuming that it's a joke. But what's so funny about it, I can't get. I'm totally slow when it comes to this sort of thing. Someone explain it to me.

Julieann · 11-03-2008, 03:02 PM

^ The joke, which I didn't get until Steph laughed at me, is this: if you're a guy, the hot girls talk their way into your car, proceed to steal your wallet by rubbing all over you...and apparently this is an awesome enough experience to go back and let them do it a whole bunch more times. Hence the "I got my wallet stolen fifty times in a month" thing. (And the punchline, I guess, is where we're told that you can buy cheapo wallets at Wal*Mart to facilitate your addiction to having boobs rubbed in your face, without really spending a whole lot to do so.)

I agree with Kalin, it'd be funnier if men weren't actually that stupid.
