I received this email from a friend of mine it seems pretty legitimate just wanted to share it with you all.
Warning Share with your sisters, daughters, nieces, mothers, and female friends. This Incident has been confirmed.
A man came over and offered his services as a painter to a female putting petrol 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 petrol 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 odour was on her hand; the same hand which accepted the card from the gentleman at the service 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.
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 KNOWApril 2, 2009 at 2:39 pm #71915Razzle DazzleMemberHi Happymammy,
Just Googled ‘BURUNDANGA’ and apparently the story your friend forwarded is an urban legend. Fair play to you for posting it as a warning though as in this day and age anything is possible.
Thanks

Good to know about these things!! 🙂April 2, 2009 at 3:45 pm #71919HappymammyMemberI didnt think to google as it seemed legit enough. However, nothing surprises me these days and its just an extra caution to add to our long lists of ‘to watch out for’ 🙂
