Ron,

I tend to check out any of this stuff on snopes.com...

http://www.snopes.com/crime/warnings/carjack.asp

In the personal security classes I teach, I go over situational awareness in parking lots and other public places.

It's best to be on "yellow" level alert at all times. That means you're aware of your surroundings; who is present and take action when you feel uncomfortable for any reason. "green" level would mean you're oblivious to your surroundings - which is how many people go about the world...
