A young woman’s smart thinking at a Starbucks parking lot has people talking about a scam that targets female drivers. The story, shared by Connecticut radio and TV host Vinnie Penn, shows a growing trick where strangers walk up to women and say something is wrong with their car. When the women say no, these strangers get pushy and won’t leave them alone.
Penn told the story about a 22-year-old woman who saw a man staring at her inside a Starbucks. When she walked back to her car with her coffee, the man followed her outside and stood behind her car. He knocked on her window and told her she had a flat tire. The woman said no and stayed in her car. She told him through the window that her dashboard showed all her tires were fine.
