Ladies/Females BEWARE........WATCH OUT for copycats.....
You gotta admire this guys "chutzpa" though. I mean thinking this scam up and actually carrying it out...If he stuck with the "breast exam" he might never had gotten caught......

I take it he is a REAL "Dirty Old Man".
I do wonder how many times he has tried this in the past.

Phony Doctor Gives Free Breast Exams
Reuters
MIAMI (April 20) - A 76-year-old man claiming to be a doctor went door-to-door in a Florida neighborhood offering free breast exams, and was charged with sexually assaulting two women who accepted the offer, police said on Thursday.


One woman became suspicious after the man asked her to remove all her clothes and began conducting a purported genital exam without donning rubber gloves, investigators said.


The woman then phoned the Broward County Sheriff's Office and the suspect fled. He was arrested at another woman's apartment in the same Lauderdale Lakes neighborhood on Wednesday, a sheriff's spokesman said.


The white-haired suspect, Philip Winikoff, carried a black bag and claimed to be visiting on behalf of a local hospital.


"He told the woman that he was in the neighborhood offering free breast exams," sheriff's spokesman Hugh Graf said in a statement.


At least two women, both in their 30s, let him into their homes and he fondled and sexually assaulted them, the investigators said.


Winikoff was not a doctor, Graf said. He worked as a shuttle driver for an auto dealership.

Even if I was temporarily insane and accepted the freebie exam, there's NO WAY I'd admit it afterwards--he'd be gettin' away with it as far as I was concerned.

That is what makes me wonder how many other women would feel the same way and how many times he has gotten away with it.
