No, not me, but a close friend of mine.
He had his Buick Grand National in the classified ads for sale, and was set up. A woman called about it and wanted to see it/go for a ride. He met her outside his apartment complex when she called again, and took her for a spin. She said "I want it. take me up the street where I left my car, I'll be back with the money." He started dropping her off at the curb when a man jumped in, pushing a gun into his face and yelling at him to get out. My buddy was scrambling with the seatbelt, trying to look for a way to fight back. He was trying to gather a couple of his things while being pushed out from the passenger side by the man, when a second man appeared outside the driver's side. My buddy said "WTF are you doing? I don't have insurance on this car, take a different one". The first guy started screaming at him to get out, and was getting more and more forceful(while the woman just stood there), and the second guy was now opening up the deiver's door, pulling my friend out and punching him up with the butt of his pistol. My friend is a tough guy(I don't hang out with wussys[;)]) but he knew he couldn't fight back against 2 large armed brothas. My buddy went down, the second guy reached in my buddy's pockets, and took his cell phone and all his keys. Yeah, his apartment keys and the keys to a couple of his other cars! The second guy then pushed him out of the way and jumped in the driver's side while the woman jumped in the passenger side, and peeled out down the street. The first guy ran down the street, most likely to the car that brought the 3 of them there in the first place. My buddy couldn't call the police(the guys had stolen his phone) and couldn't get into his apartment(they had stolen his keys) so he had to run up to the first house yelling for them to call the police. The jackers then realised they had driven in the wrong direction, and turned around, driving right past him again! the guy driving just stared at him with a look my buddy said made him feel like he was about to die. my buddy ducked for cover, and the Grand National sped off with it's new "owners".
The police, when taking his report, asked if he had a phone # for the thugs. Of course my friend's cell-phone has caller ID( as most do now), and he actually had 2 different phone numbers that the woman had used. But of course he doesn't have his phone anymore since they took it. He also had the registration for the car in the glove box, and the pink slip since he was attempting to sell it. The car was uninsured, as of about a week ago, since he had a buyer for it(who backed out).
The worst is that he lost his apartment keys, along with his registration which of course has his address on it!!!
He was getting the locks changed when he called me, and was pretty shook up.
He got his spare keys to one of his other cars, and drove up to my house, and of course I loaned him something to protect himself with.
We talked for a while, and while I can't really think of a way to avoid being jacked, he'll for sure be more careful in the future, as will I.
This is about the 5th time one of my close friends has been CarJacked, and he's lucky to be alive(2 of my other friends weren't so lucky).
BE CAREFUL OUT THERE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!
