DANGER IN PARKING LOTS DANGER

Transcript

Alright, I've shared this video before, but this one is gonna go out to all the women out there, teens, or anybody, even men, that they're wanting to traffic. Watch out for these signs if you're going to approach your vehicle. These are some of the things that they're gonna use in order to traffic you or tag your vehicle. Right up above me, the money, right over here, gonna have a white powdery substance usually inside a folded dollar bill. Or zip tie on your door handle. These are either a sign that they're going to try to traffic you or take you or the money with the powder right over here and do not pick it up. If you want to pick up money like that, maybe carry a pair of gloves with you. But look out for these signs and be aware and be safe out there. Y'all take care.
