Car thieves improve their tools after the complication of car design. The AvtoVzglyad portal talks about another way to take possession of other people’s transport, controlled by hijackers.

Another report about the technological achievements of the criminals came from France after the arrest of two car thieves in the suburbs of Paris. They were captured after the theft of a Peugeot 2008. During a search, the boys found a smart bluetooth speaker from JBL. But, as it turned out, not simple, but adapted.

It was basically a “quick start key” for the car. To use it, it was enough for criminals to get into the car and connect the speaker to the vehicle’s multimedia system via USB. After that, the car goes completely under their control.

It turned out that you can buy this device for high-tech hijacking in the “darknet” for 5,000 euros. According to Cybernews.com, in addition to Peugeot cars, the custom Bluetooth speaker can also withstand theft from Toyota and Lexus cars. We should not be surprised if a similar thief tool is already in the hands of Russian car thieves.
