Threat or No Threat ???

Hope everyone is having a Great Turkey Day!!! I had a great day and the food was awesome.... We just got home about an hour ago and my wife had received a call from her mother wishing us a Happy Thanksgiving (you know how that goes..) Anyway, my wife's mother told her a story that happened day before yesterday to my wife's sister in law. The story goes that the sister in law was at the grocery store when the lady in front of her (wearing a burka) was short money to pay for her groceries (a few dollars short) So the sister in law pays the few dollars for the lady and then pays for her groceries and goes outside. Once outside the lady in the burka comes up to her and tells her "thank you" for the assistance and the sister in law tells her that this is just what down home people do for each other. The lady in the burka says "well you have helped me and now I am going to help you...." "Do not purchase any"*****" products after the 29th of this month.... When she asked for more information the lady in the burka told her "that is all I can tell you, just don't purchase any..." and walked away..... I told my wife that her mother needed to tell the sister in law to contact the FBI..... I wish I could name the product, but if it is a farce I do not want to start a internet scare (you know what I mean)....Would you contact the authorities without first hand knowledge of the facts??? Let me know brothers....

It's worth reporting, but I'd simply move on with life. 99% the lady is just got loose fuses and broken wires.

Are you referring to the person who told you the tall tale? I am doubting the exchange with Sis-In-Law @ the grocery store ever happened...(or maybe it did, but these stories typically get circulated via e-mail).

Ten bucks says when you talk to the wife's sister in law (the source of the story) you'll find that the story was merely related by the sister in law to the mother, and that is didn't happen to the sister in law but was told to her by someone who swears it happened to someone they knew.
