Anti-Theft Solution and Stolen Vehicle Recovery
Intro
Vehicle theft is one of the world’s fastest growing crimes as thieves turn to using highly advanced equipment, e.g. jammers. By jamming GPS signals, the criminals aim to interfere and inhibit the performance of a tracking device – its ability to monitor and gather important information. Luckily, Skytrack trackers have a functionality that can detect jamming and help to prevent theft or to recover a stolen vehicle.
Challenge
Thieves are very organized and can steal a vehicle in seconds as statistics shows it all over the world. Meanwhile, police fail to recover more than half of stolen vehicles. For criminals, it is a low-risk way of making a fortune. According to Interpol data, illicit trafficking of vehicles generates an estimated 19 billion USD of criminal earnings worldwide every year and the number is growing.
First of all, thieves will choose those vehicles that are easy targets, e.g. can be stolen fast and without attracting attention. Speed is of the utmost importance to thieves as they risk being caught and try to get away as soon as possible. Thus, if you wish to make your vehicle less attractive to thieves, you should think how to slow them down in the process of stealing, even a few seconds can make a difference.
Solution
Anything that forces thieves and joy-riders to spend more time will make a vehicle a much less appealing target. It is the most effective way of preventing a car theft and making the criminals to look for another object to steal.
Skytrack FMB920 tracker is a small device that can be easily hidden in a vehicle. It is the best way to keep track of your vehicle’s whereabouts and get it back if it is stolen. Naturally, thieves will often try to find a tracker, disable it and get away with the car. Therefore, you must make sure the tracker is hidden well, so it would not be a simple task for the thieves to find and unplug it.
