Woman claims nice note prevents her car from being stolen

A Redditor, who was sick of her car being stolen, decided as a last resort to write a note for the next carjacker in the hope that they would bring it back.

So, mfiasco put the note into the glove department of her car asking that it be left somewhere where it won’t get towed, because she cannot afford "to keep bailing it out of car jail".

In the note she asks the car thief to leave her car in a neighbourhood, saying: "There’s a note in this envelope; just stick it on the dash or under the wiper. A passerby will see it eventually and call me and then I can come get my car.

"No cops, no questions asked; I’m not even mad at you. It’s win-win: I don’t have to deal with police reports, insurance claims and tow trucks and you don’t have to feel like a jerk for ruining the month of a nice person."

Mfiasco has reported that since then her car was stolen again and she has recovered it, but she thinks her letter worked because "they ditched it in front of a house this time (YAY)."

When she got to her car, she says that her note was sitting on the seat.

Redditors have been sceptical about her claim, but she has said: "I did not claim my car was definitely recovered because of the note. Maybe it had nothing to do with it.

"All I know is it was open, on the passenger seat, when I got to the car."

Either way, we’d like to think it was true.
