We would like to share advice on how to protect your vehicle and prevent it from being stolen, and a reminder about relay thefts and protecting your key fobs. Advice can be found on our website - Keeping vehicles safe | Crime prevention | West Midlands Police
Relay theft is on the rise What is relay theft? Thieves use devices to amplify your key fob's signal, tricking your car into thinking the key is nearby. They unlock, start, and steal the car—all without a trace. 🚘 Thieves can intercept your car key’s signal from outside your home and steal your vehicle—even if your doors are locked. Take steps to protect your car! 🚨 See someone acting suspiciously around vehicles? Trying door handles or lingering near driveways? Call 999 immediately. Your vigilance can help us combat relay theft! 🚔
Faraday pouches to protect your vehicle How do Faraday pouches work? They block electromagnetic signals, stopping your car key’s signal from being intercepted by thieves. It’s simple, effective protection! Faraday pouches aren't just for car keys. You can use them to protect other wireless devices like RFID cards or access fobs from being skimmed or cloned. Think of a Faraday pouch as a "signal shield" for your car keys. When used properly, it can stop relay thieves in their tracks. Test yours regularly to ensure it works! 🚘💡 Protect your ride with these anti-theft must-haves: Stay one step ahead of thieves! 🚘💪
