Cheeky prick!

Just saw this on my FB news feed, someone hit my friends car this morning and realized one of the neighbors saw it happen so the person that hit the car wrote this down and put it in her letterbox.

What he means is that nobody hit your friends car this morning, or left them a note.

If I was a neighbor and saw this... I'd take a note of the registration number of the offending vehicle... or use my camera phone to snap a pic of the car and the driver...

It possibly does, but not to the OP's friend, 'this morning'.

Its hardly far fetched. On fact the culprit could well have gotten the idea from the internet.

Because many people are dishonest and would, I suspect, sooner choose to save themselves some hassle and money while being very "witty" than do the honest thing.
And given that, as you point out, the entire world has heard of this, it's not as though the offender had to come up with the plan on the spot.
It happened to someone in the car park outside our office last year.

Not everyone has the eyesight, technology, memory, or neighbourly interest to do that though.

I'm inclined to agree with you - it's just that some people seem to be posting under the impression that it can't happen in real life... because everyone has heard about it?

Hmmm I don't know, I saw it on my news feed this morning and just said I'd post it here. Maybe it did happen, maybe it didn't I'll have to ask her next time I see her.

I know it did... cuz it was me what done it... mmuuuhhhh ha ha ha ha... I did it to save my no claims bonus ... and I'm not one bit sorry!

See how easy it is to claim on the internet that something happened

Does that mean it actually did? well I leave that for you to decide

up for anything

I did. IBM5520 - used electronic mail from the London office to contact the American offices when I worked in an oil company. :P

A nice but true story, a girl I know came out of work only to be greeted by her door all crumpled up, but under her wiper was an explanation how it happened (his son took the hand brake off while he was in the shop) Name, address, phone number.

She thought the honesty was was wonderful it restored her faith in people, so she went to the garage and screwed your man for the whole side of the car, and when he settled one to one she just took the 500 and went on a weekend break.

Nah she just told him it was fine, it was an old car and had a few dints anyway.

Agreed. Never heard of it myself actually - it is kinda funny IMO but also kuntish. If it happened.

but it was on his friends facebook status, are you saying that facebook status' are not a reliable source of news?

I saw that trick on Veronica Mars a few years ago, I remembering thinking how clever it was.

And then went out to find a car to crash into with a neighbour watching to see if it worked.

I think the first time that note appeared, it was done in hieroglyphics on papyrus after an incident with a chariot.

Tzar Chasm

Ah come on now hasn't everyone done this at least once after some form of parking incident.

I know I have

that exact picture has been floating around the internet forever, you can even google it, just google search "hit car note" theres loads of the exact same note.

Can't find that particular note.
The fact that the OP states the offender knew which house the car owner lived in is a little suspect though...

Agreed. If I was left that note and hadn't already seen it on the internet, I'd find it pretty funny.

Searched but can't find it, she does drive a black Polo though! Few of her friends on FB fell for it anyway
