Criminals are again hunting yards and parking lots, choosing cars not only in the premium segment, but also in the budget class. As a rule, stolen cars are dismantled for spare parts, which are then sold at flea markets, the so-called car showrooms and even well-known internet sites for selling anything and everything.
How does the car thief scheme work? At night, after making sure that there are no people near the car, the attackers put a regular ruble or a two-ruble coin under the handle of the car’s passenger door. It is difficult to notice on the crane, at least because not every car owner bypasses his “horse” for the trip, and even more so opens the car from the driver’s side.
After unlocking the central locking, the driver sits down and quietly leaves for his own business. The criminal quietly follows him in his car, or tracks the location of the “customer” through the mobile application’s tracker. To do this, it is enough to stick a beacon or an ordinary “one-day” SIM card on double-stick tape, for example, under the bumper or fender of the desired car.
After the driver closes the car, all the doors are locked, except the one where the infamous coin is placed in the lever, which actually holds the lever in the open position. Furthermore, we believe that it is not necessary to tell. In fact, it’s a good idea that it’s not difficult to get into the salon. Even if it is not always to steal, but to steal. Similar cases are quickly gaining popularity in the north of Moscow, in the Moscow region, as well as in a number of other regions of Russia.
In order not to fall into the trap, you should inspect your own car for the presence of such “traps” in the door handles. As they say, be careful and God saves. In addition, there is unfortunately no hope for law enforcement agencies and compensation from insurers in most cases.
By the way, recently the AvtoVzglyad portal published a list of the most stolen cars in Russia. The models included in the anti-rating will surprise you unpleasantly: more details – here.
