Want your kidneys stolen?  Try this for size

Brought to us by Yomoeh, April 15, 2008

This is a true story, it has been confirmed, the Medical Centre phone
number at the end of this story is real.


This guy went out on a Saturday night a few weeks ago to a party. He was
having a good time and had a couple of beers and some girl seemed to
like him & invited him to go to another party. He quickly agreed &
decided to go along with her. She took him to a party in some apartment
and they continued to drink & even got involved with some drug
(unknown). The next thing he knew, he woke up completely naked in a
bathtub filled with ice. He was still feeling the effects of the drugs,
but looked around to see he was alone. He looked down at his chest,
which had CALL 000 or YOU'LL DIE" written on it with lipstick. He saw a
phone was on a stand next to the tub so he Picked it up & dialled. He
explained to the EMS operator what the situation was & that he didn't
know where he was, what he took, or why the situation was & that he
didn't know where he was, what he took or why he was really calling. She
advised him to get out of the tub. He did, and he appeared normal, so
she told him to check his back. He did, he found two 9 inch slits on his
lower back. She told him to get back into the tub immediately, and they
sent a rescue team over. Apparently, after being examined, he found out
more of what had happened. His kidneys were stolen. They were worth
$10,000 each on the black market. He is currently in the hospital on a
life support, awaiting a spare kidney.

I wish to warn you about a new crime ring that is targeting business
travellers. This ring is well organized and well funded, has very
skilled personnel & is currently operating in most major cities around
the world and recently very active in Sydney. The crime begins when a
business traveller goes to a lounge for a drink at the end of the work
day. A person in the bar walks up as they sit alone and offers to buy
them a drink. The last thing the traveller remembers until they wake up
in a hotel room bathtub, their body submerged to their neck in ice, is
sipping that drink. There is a note taped to the wall instructing them
not to move and to call 000. A phone is on the small table next to the
bathtub for them to call. The business traveller calls 000 who have been
quite familiar with this crime.The business traveller is instructed by
the 000 operator to very slowly and carefully reach behind them and feel
there is a tube protruding from the back. The business traveller finds
the tube and answers "YES". The 000 operator tells them to remain still,
having already sent paramedics to help. The Operator knows that both of
the traveller's kidneys had been harvested.

This is not a scam or out of science fiction novel. It is real. It is
documented and confirmable. If you travel or someone close to you
travels, please be careful. Sadly, this is very true. I REALLY WANT AS
MANY PEOPLE TO SEE THIS AS POSSIBLE SO PLEASE BOUNCE THIS TO WHOEVER YOU CAN. Michele Shafer ML/Lab Administration, Medical Manager Research & Development 99 Missenden RD , Camperdown, Sydney 2000

2) I was approached yesterday afternoon around 3.30 pm in the Car parking
lot by two males, asking what kind of perfume I was wearing. Then they
asked if I'd like to sample some fabulous Scent they were willing to
sell me at a very reasonable rate. I probably would have agreed had I
not received an email some weeks ago, warning of this scam. The men
continued to stand between parked cars, I guess to wait for someone else
to hit on. I stopped a lady going towards them, I pointed at them and
told her about how I was sent an email at Work about someone walking up
to you at the malls, in parking lots, and Asking you to sniff perfume
that they are selling at a cheap price.

THIS IS NOT PERFUME - IT IS ETHER!
When you sniff it, you'll pass out and they'll take Your wallet,your
valuables, and heaven knows what else. If it were not for this email, I
probably would have sniffed the "perfume", but thanks to the generosity
of an emailing friend, I was spared whatever might Have happened to
me,and wanted to do the same for you.

LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS, YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, CO-WORKERS
