Can you tell us where it is likely to happen next?
I'll send Mr Bexley up with his TX4.
At least he will get the Insurance then . .

ALL CAR OWNERS AND CAR DRIVERS PLEASE READ Be aware of new car-jacking scheme. You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift or put into reverse. 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 the gear stick back into park or neutral, 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!! Your engine was running, you would have left 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 IN GLASGOW AND MANCHESTER AND IS MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY!!!!!!!! Just drive away and remove the paper later! It is stuck to your Window and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this to friends and family especially to women! A purse contains all identification, and you certainly do NOT want someone getting your home address. They already HAVE your keys!!! I have been sent this warning and asked that it be distributed widely to alert everyone - JUST BE AWARE AND TAKE CARE IT WILL PROBABLY SOON ARRIVE IN YOUR AREA Brian Molloy Detective Constable Force Intelligence Bureau Strathclyde Police |

If this warning is widely circulated, I’d hazard a guess it will be happening all over the country very soon. Crooks have internet too these days you know. |

With the engine running then his keys are in the car, so he won't get his insurance, so back to the drawing board.

He would not have to claim, they would bring it back even pay him to take it
