And now everyone outside of LA knows how to do this, too!!
(Reason #216 why I gave up driving and owning a car!)
My car is so old nobody wants to steal it. Besides having a fuel cut off switch.
This is a tactic used by Private Investigators. Private Investigators and Career criminals are one in the same. If you or someone you know would like to learn how to become a 'legal' criminal there is a school in Fort Lauderdale FL, hosted by a Career Criminal named Jeff who will teach you.
so the security companies that control this tech sold it to criminals.
now, we will have to spend more money on them for increased security.
or we could make buying or selling those devices illegal and any company making these has their license revoked
Stay classy, humanity. Keep stealing stuff, cheating others, lying, and taking whatever you want. That's how you become immortal.
"Theft" is a social construct.
Uh not new. Just new to dumb people. This is crazy. This is just like fentanyl. Took yall like 15 years to even get it right it was coming from China 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Wait, so this makes me think that Car thieves aren’t as smart as they thought they were
So they're stealing v6 Camaros…
This is only a problem with cars that have a push button start feature the thief doesn’t need your keys to start the car due to signal duplication. If you have an actual key to start your vehicle. This wont be a problem. They can maybe steal the signal to access your car, but not to start it they would have to hotwire it for that or use the key….
Woke DEMOCRACY is a travesty, a sham, a tool of deception for bought and sold Democrats.
Nice ad for camaros
Change the law 🤷♂️ spoiled kids🤠
Track amazon order they sold the necessary product wow thanks Bezo
Had a problem twice with this years back with my 2004 Mazda. The dealership then told me to NEVER use the keyfob to lock the car, as that's when lowlifes pick up its signal and copy it. So lock that car manually.
Yeah blue tooth also a criminals friend 😂
Walk and take piiv transportation😂
Who in their right mind would leave their keyfob in their car? 🙄
I thought MSNBC was always supposed to report that crime is not increasing in Democrat run cities and states. 😂😂
Technology and diversity ruined us
Priya scares me.
The criminals are evolving
It’s black ppl.
Sounds like my 2004 car and key into ignition model is safe from this
Street racing… Every video shown was just drifting
Never keep your keys close to where you store your vehicles unless you have some signal jammer on the keys
Its amazing that it hasnt been bad all along, same with garage door openers. Its all hackable or easily duplicated.
