The letter kind of sounds like an urban legend thing. Is there actual proof this email was sent from the university?
After the email was found there was one of these =>:smile: so it must be true.

SAFETY ALERT-Suspicious Person at Department of Public Safety
DPS crime alert about a suspicious person good enough proof?
Last year in Iowa City I walked outside of a video store at night. As soon as I was out of the light this shady looking guy approached me and told me he was from Illinois and got stuck in Iowa City and needed help getting back home.
He wanted some money or offered to sell his watch etc. I immediately walked back into the light and view of the people in the video store and stated that I couldn't help him and that if he was stuck in Iowa City he should contact the police to get some help. The word police was apparently all he heard me say and he quickly turned away and started walking back into the dark muttering something.
I don't know, the guy might have really needed help, and it bothers me to think I just left another person stranded if he needed help... but something tells me the moment I pulled out my wallet I would have been on the ground and he would have been gone with it.
As Iowans, sometimes I think we are too nice and trusting by nature and that can make us easy targets.
Take it easy psycho...
There is still a chance this did not actually occur. There are people that like to report things that are not real.
Did it ever occur to you that his sole intention was to have you buy a stolen or junk watch? :wink:
