Theft of Motor Vehcles


Hello Resident,

 

We are continuing to have instances of cars being stolen from just outside houses, this normally involves keyless cars and normally happens overnight however in some cases this has happened in the middle of the day when no-one expects it. 

 

There is an easy way to protect against this theft and it involves getting a storage pouch/box for your keys which blocks the signal being stolen, the thieves steal your keys signal from outside your house and then use the signal to steal your car. They will also de-activate any tracking signals from the vehicles as they are very organised and professionals who know what they are doing. 

 

We are advising people to purchase a RFID key fob pouch or box as it is a simple thing that can stop the theft of your keyless car. If you want to know more please use the link below. (please note we have selected this article as it has lots of good information however we are not suggesting a particular type or brand):
