This is one fucked up scam!!!
Whats is the this world coming to? This may be an old scam, but I just read about this the other day.

TO ALL MY FRIENDS PASS IT ALONG!!!
I was approached yesterday afternoon around 3:30pm in the Walmart
parking lot at Forest Drive, by two males, asking what kind of perfume I
was wearing. Then they asked if I'd like to sample some fabulous scent
they were willing to sell me at a very reasonable rate. I probably would
have agreed had I not received an email some weeks ago, warning of a
"wanna smell this neat perfume?" scam. The men continued to stand
between parked cars, I guess to wait for someone else to hit on. I
stopped a lady going toward them, pointed at them, and told her about
how I was sent an e-mail at work about someone walking up to you at the malls or in parking lots, and asking you to SNIFF PERFUME that they are selling at a cheap price. THIS IS NOT PERFUME -- IT IS ETHER! When you sniff it, you'll pass out. And they'll take your wallet, your valuables, and heaven knows what else. If it were not for this e-mail, I probably would have sniffed the "perfume". But thanks to the generosity of an emailing friend, I was spared whatever might have happened to me. I wanted to do the same for you.
