Okay this has nothing to do with LOTR but its still very important.

Okay I know there are a few people on the board that are from the UK and for any of those that are in the NW take heed of this. Two men have been stopping people on their own in secluded area away from the shops in towns and asking them to try a new perfume, don't, something inside it will knock you out and while you're unconscious they'll rob you so be careful*

I'm not sure where in the NW but my dad said another place was in Crawley which I believe is somewhere down south.

This is an old urban legend. It's not true, and it's certainly not important. See http://www.snopes.com/horrors/robbery/perfume.htm
It's always worth checking before spreading this sort of nonsense.

Do you think it has surfaced now as a kind of subliminal response to the new date rape drug warnings that have just been circulating? Evening Standard for one.
