Unhappy Beware of "Landscaping" that wasn't Ordered

I just thought you may be interested in this article that I read. It could prevent you from being the target of thieves.

It seems that a family in Texas came home one day to find that their large tree had been "landscaped" with some landscaping blocks. These blocks were placed very neatly around their tree and looked kind of nice there. The family asked several neighbors if they knew anything about the blocks, but none of them had seen them placed around the tree and none of them had placed them around the tree. It seemed pretty strange, but the family then pretty much shrugged their shoulders and thought no more about it.

Then, one morning the husband went out to his brand-new truck which was sitting in the driveway.....and discovered that the truck was now sitting on those very same landscaping blocks, and his $5,000 set of tires and rims were missing.

So beware if you happen to see something in your yard that shouldn't be there. You could be a potential victim of a thief.
