Postmen with Parangs???





shared by Noel Dass

Hi all, just heard from a friend that there is a new tactic of daylight robbery that targets senior citizens or people living alone who are at home during the day. Apparently his nei

ghborhood in Bangsar received a circular saying that robbers are dressed as postmen and go to houses and say that they are delivering a registered post and they have to come out to sign for it. When the person goes out, the "postman" produces a parang and then proceeds to rob them. If this is true, then the safest thing to do when you receive a visit from a postman who is delivering registered mail to you is to tell them that you will go and collect it at the post office yourself and not entertain them any further. This sucks for the legitimate postal deliveries but better to be safe than sorry.
