This is crazy and wild. I remember my car got stolen near my neighborhood in Brooklyn a couple years ago while I went inside a restaurant to grab some food. While inside I felt like something was a little off when I went back outside 10mins later I didn’t see my car I thought I was in a dream like I had to laugh a little before reality set in. Long story short the NYPD found my car a couple days later in upper Manhattan and my car was almost unrecognizable cause the person whole stole literally moved ALL of their house belongings inside of it like they were living inside of it. The car ran out of gas and the person left a note on the windshield. Car got a ticket cause he/she parked it by a bus stop lane. Cops said they arrested the person cause the person came back to the car. Person was mentally ill. Just wild.

A lot of cars stolen from here end up in either Romania, Albania or Poland. A magazine did some research and went to Albania. In the streets they would see people looking homeless driving around in expensive cars, sometimes even being Bentley and stuff like that. They also found a salvage/impound yard where the Albanian police had confiscated cars. There was everything you could want and it was mostly high-end cars. They found one from our country that still had the plates on, and they found out what insurance company it belonged to. The insurance company told the journalists that the owner had indeed have his car stolen, but it was so long ago that they had already ridden this one off and gave him a new one. It was absolutely wild. There was even a lightly armored (and very heavy) Mercedes AMG in this lot, though not from my country. All kinds of cars with plates from surrounding nordic countries. You could also tell that they weren’t really taken care of because the lot itself was very overgrown and the cars just randomly parked.

We would get a lot of unsavory characters there, like druggies and prostitutes, and occasionally we would get car thieves who would stay for a few hours to get some sleep while transporting a car down to Mexico to be placed on one of these cargo ships to be transported to Asia or South America for their auto black markets.

After I alerted the night manager about him, so that he could be billed appropriately, I kept an eye on him as he would go out at about 45 min intervals, indicative of drug activity very late at night. I scrutinized the car closely and noticed signs of forced entry near the door handle and ignition lock damage, suggesting that it was a stolen car. When I reported the information to San Diego PD, they ran the plate and found nothing and so did not want to pursue the matter. After more instances of suspicious activity, I again contacted the police and implored them to check further. When they called the registered owner at home he reported that the car was missing from his driveway. The cops came out, when I told them he was out, and I filled them in on the pattern of his behavior. We set a trap for him when he would return, where I would signal the cops with my flashlight when he drove in. They intercepted him, he ran and they ran him down and they found a nasty and hostile prostitute in the room. This was such a good bust for the cops that the sergeant gave me his business card and invited me to call him personally, whenever I saw any kind of criminal activity. Not all security guards are incompetent and lazy losers.

My sister lives in NJ and she said that most recently there are stolen cars high end took to the port to ship them overseas to poor countries. She said she saw this thing happened in front of her eyes.

[@chungking1974]

You can’t tell me the shipping company didn’t know and these criminals probably didn’t pay off everybody else that’s why they got caught

[@trumpet12345]

key to crime. pay off everyone. you rip someone off, you will get burned. sometimes literally.

[@forgivetwitch7640]

False manifests

[@DwyaneBlacktooth]

All crime should equal the DP. Enough.

[@saburvd7874]

We need to get a government in here that will end the lives of every criminal across the country. No long trials, no soft prisons, no second chances, and therefore no repeat offenders. The moment someone steals, loots, robs, kidnaps, rapes, uses illegal drugs, or is in a gang is the day they end there life.

[@mikem5475]

I don't think this is a good idea. Then criminals would just get into deadly standoffs, knowing that there is no mercy

My bmw x3 m40i got stolen 2 months ago within 6-7 minutes in front of the house around 5:30 pm. It’s really heartbreaking I still can’t believe this happened to us.. 💔

[@DottyGreenee]

Broad daylight?

[@joeyuetang754]

How’d they bypass the alarm and the security system?

[@n_hr18]

@@joeyuetang754 they put some kind of gps tracker on our car and they were following us.. they have all the devices to steal your car

[@PerformanceY]

​@@n_hr18 Did insurance cover it?

[@AR-vd8xs]

which state?

[@4Realkevv]

HOLD THE PORTS ACCOUNTABLE THEY SHOULD BE SENDING THEM BACK AND CHECKING THEM WITH PAPER WORK

[@wildlifewarrior2670]

I guess you must really mean that you type in all capitals I'm surprised you didn't type in bold

[@Grasshopper.80]

And we all pay higher insurance rates as a result. More could be done but it’s just the cost of doing business.

[@glt918]

"It's just the cost of doing business" it's weird how there's always a saying for when there's a problem that nobody wants to actually deal with that usually affects the majority of Americans

[@Grasshopper.80]

America

[@TwistedAkimoto]

A regional manager for a global insurer once told us that fraud and theft are necessary for the insurance industry

[@TinoMiller]

How do you even get a stolen car that far to the other side of the world ?!

[@wildlifewarrior2670]

Easy money

[@krabes8613]

Was this a problem 4 or 5 years ago?

[@lu-bo6yh]

For decades lmao.

[@thatguy7085]

They are even used as rental cars overseas… called slightly warm rental car

[@PerformanceY]

Buy a tesla. Nobody will touch it😂

[@patlooson4644]

I don't understand USA. Why can't they simply ban second hand car sales abroad?

[@Steven-sk6vm]

so this is what happens to my cars that i cant find for repo.

[@crichussey9167]

Huge problem in the UK too :(

[@erikfavela8787]

It’s hilarious that’s this is just getting brought up, it’s been happening for years.

[@txmade4371]

I think for every container they pop, there is a hundred that get through.
