We have been advised of a very dangerous scam which you should make a note of.

One of our readers whilst driving on a rural end of a roadway saw an infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it.

For whatever reason, they did not stop, even though they had all kinds of thoughts running through their head. But when they got to their destination, they called the Police to report it.

This is what the Police advised even before they went out there to check….

There are several things to be aware of … gangs and thieves are now plotting different ways to get a person (mostly women) to stop their vehicle and get out of the car.

“There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police where gangs are placing a car seat by the road…with a fake baby in it…waiting for a woman, of course, to stop and check on the abandoned baby. “Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or grassy (field) area and the person — woman — will be dragged into the woods, beaten and raped, and usually left for dead. If it’s a man, they’re usually beaten and robbed and maybe left for dead, too.

DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!!  DIAL the Police AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW, BUT DON’T EVEN SLOW DOWN. 

This is a new tactic used. Please be safe.
