    Its an urban legend started from a chain e-mail ;l :

    Subject: Be Alert & Cautious / Must read!!

    A man came over and offered his services as a painter to a female who was putting gas in her car and left his card. She said no, but accepted his card out of kindness and got in the car. The man then got into a car driven by another gentleman. As the lady left the service station, she saw the men following her out of the station at the same time. Almost immediately, she started to feel dizzy and could not catch her breath. She tried to open the window and realized that the odor was on her hand; the same hand which accepted the card from the gentleman at the gas station.

    She then noticed the men were immediately behind her and she felt she needed to do something at that moment. She drove into the first driveway and began to honk her horn repeatedly to ask for help. The men drove away but the lady still felt pretty bad for several minutes after she could finally catch her breath.

    Apparently, there was a substance on the card that could have seriously injured her.

    This drug is called 'BURUNDANGA' and it is used by people who wish to incapacitate a victim in order to steal from or take advantage of them like REPEATED GANG RAPE. This drug is four times more dangerous than the date rape drug and is transferable on simple cards.

    So take heed and make sure you don't accept cards at any given time alone or from someone on the streets. This applies to those making house calls and slipping you a card when they offer their services .

    PLEASE SEND THIS E-MAIL ALERT TO EVERY FEMALE YOU KNOW
    Research "Burundanga"

    If u CBA it must be inhaled or eaten, and it has no smell or taste.

    A scam would be tricking someone into doing something they don't mean to do, giving someone a card that somehow drugs you then stealing your stuff while you're unconcious is theft more than anything, it's not a scam because they haven't said "sign your credit card details to this and you'll get a "free" lifetime subscription for donut trust" or something.
