Warning About B&q

[Al Milton]

I'm not usually one for posting warnings about potential scams but I had a close call yesterday.

 

I walked into B&Q hardware store at lunchtime and some old guy dressed in a black shirt with an orange apron on asked me if I wanted decking.

 

Fortunately, I got the first punch in and sorted the bugger out.

 

Those less suspicious might not be so lucky.

 

Pass this warning on.

Dangerous place - B&Q:

 

A "heads up" for those of you who may be regular B&Q customers. 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. 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 shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping

your windshield with a rag and Mr Sheen 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

another B&Q store.

 

If you agree, they get in the back seat. On the way, they start having

sex with each other. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and

gets frisky with you, while the other one steals your wallet.

 

I had my wallet stolen May 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th,

17th,20th, & 24th. Also Jun 1st, 3rd, twice on the 7th, three times

yesterday and very likely again this upcoming weekend. So please be careful and warn others!

Yup, happens to me all the time as well

 

Must be why I keep getting asked if I want decking
