How to Lock Your Car and Why
I locked my car --- as I walked away I heard my car
door unlock.=2 0 I went back and locked my car again
three times. I looked around and there were two guys
sitting in a car in the fire lane next to the store.
When I looked straight at them they did not unlock my
car again.
How to lock your car safely - While traveling, my son
stopped at a roadside park. He came out to his car
less than 4-5 minutes later and found someone had
gotten into his car, and stolen his cell phone, laptop
computer, GPS navigator briefcase, you name it. He
called the police and since there were no signs of his
car being broken into, the police told him that there
is a device that robbers are using now to clone your
security code when you lock your doors on your car
using your key-chain locking device.
They sit a distance away and watch for their next
victim. They know you are going inside of the store,
restaurant, or bathroom, and have a few minutes to
steal and run. The police officer said to
manually lock your car door, by hitting
the Lock button inside the car. That way, if there is
someone sitting in a parking lot watching for their
next victim it will not be you.
When you hit the lock button on your
car upon exiting, it does not send the security code,
but if you walk away and use the door lock on your key
chain, it sends the code through the airwaves where it
can be stolen.
Something totally new to us...and real.
Be aware of this and please pass this note on. Look
how many times we all lock our doors with our remote,
just to be sure we remembered to lock them, and bingo
someone has our code --- and whatever was in the car,
can be stolen.
