Woman Stole My Contract and 17 Cars
You may have heard about the woman who recently went on a car stealing spree in the Austin TX area. She managed to steal 17 of them before getting caught. Her ploy was to hit local Gyms and check the Women’s locker room for unlocked lockers for keys. After finding a set she would head to the parking lot and be gone in a snap.
As it turns out, one of her victims was the sales representative for a local builder. I had spent the previous day negotiating with this builder for one of my clients and we had reached terms late in the day. Everybody signed the contract and the sales rep took the contract home with her so that se could drop it by the title company first thing in the morning. On the way to the title company, she stoped at the gym for her morning workout but upon completing her workout, she noticed her purse had been stolen from her locker. A little investigation turned up the fact that her car had also been stolen along with my clients contract that was setting in the front seat of her car. After reporting the incident to the local police, she quickly called me to let me know what had happened. Fortunately I had a copy of the contract in my car which I dropped by her office later that afternoon.
The good news in this little ordeal is that the thief has been apprehended and I hope that has brought a little justice for the sales rep who lost her car, her ID, her credit cards, and our contract. I know that I felt better after reading the story of the thief being caught.
