Just thought I'd post this message here to members.

My friend just text me to say this has been happening in devon, and also spoke to my mom and she said customers in her post office have been saying this has happened in Birmingham, and when my mom was talking to my aunt who lives in Manchester she said it's happened there too.

Basically DO NOT accept free perfume samples on a peice of paper from anyone in the street. Becuase the scent knocks you out a while later, then they mug you of your phone/wallet/i pod etc.

This isn't a rumour, so just be careful. It's ok from trusted places like Boots and whatever, but just be careful, better to be safe than sorry!

No reports of that happening down here in Devon. One of those that does the rounds like the one about the person in the petrol station paying for their fuel and being told to wait because someone has just got into their car etc.
