Although it's always a good idea to be alert, this story is made up.

I though I heard this before so I checked it out:

Its hard to believe there are so many evil people in this world these days.

Made up or not I'm sure some enterprising criminals have read it and could use it in real life. I'm soooooooo skeptical of people I don't know and women and girls should be 10 x more skeptical than men IMO. I've been doing some Craigslist selling lately and WILL NOT let anybody come to my house. I tell them my driveway is muddy and they could get stuck - partly true! So I just meet them at the store near the house. :beer:
