Recently, on Inside Edition there was an article that is of special
interest to all women. There are several new scams to abduct women. In
one, a man comes up to a woman in a Mall or Shopping Center and asks if
she likes Pizza. When she says she does, he offers her $100.00 to shoot
a commercial for Pizza, but they need to go outside where the lighting
is better. When the woman goes out of the mall she is abducted and
assaulted.

Another ploy is a very nicely dressed man asks a woman if she would be
in a Public Service Announcement to discourage drug use.The man explains
that they don’t want professional actors or celebrities they want the
average mother to do this. Once she leaves the mall she is a victim.
The third ploy, and the most successful, a very frantic man comes
running in and asks a woman to please help him, his baby is not
breathing. She runs out of the mall following him and also becomes a
victim. These have been happening in well lit parking areas, in daylight
as well as night time, all over the country. The abductor usually uses a
van to abduct the woman.

‘Inside Edition’ set up a test in a Mall and 10 out of 15 women went out
of the Mall on the Pizza and the PSA scam. And all of them went out of
the Mall on baby scam. Please pass this along to your friends and
family as now that it has been shown on nationwide TV there are bound to
be copy cats of this.

The third one, I think, is the scariest. You might resist, pizza or
becoming a commercial celebrity…but who would be able to resist a
frantic father asking for help for his child? I’m sure that one would
get me. I was going to pass this on to the ladies only, but guys, if you
love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you should pass it
on to them as well.
