A new success among car thieves. Apaches in Plovdiv and the country are crazy about a modern toy with which they can literally disappear in less than 60 seconds. It’s kind of a wireless speaker, but modified to make theft as easy as possible. There are still no cases of a car being stolen via a small loudspeaker in Bulgaria, but this is becoming a worldwide practice.
An example is France. More recently, police arrested two people who managed to steal a Peugeot using a wireless column. The number works for three car brands, but there is unofficial data that the range of vulnerable brands is much wider.
A software key for car quick start is installed in the speaker itself. The thieves unlock the vehicles with the speaker, then connect to the multimedia system via a USB cable and start the engine, write the French and English sites.
Special modified speakers are becoming more and more sought after on the black market, which increases their price every few days. According to information, they are currently trading between 5,000 and 7,000 euros. The investment is large, but it will be recovered as soon as the first car is stolen. The purchased modified speaker comes with a link to a video with instructions on exactly how it works and how to steal it, writes cybernews.com
The “magic” speakers sell like hot cakes. Thefts with them should skyrocket. The Apaches in Plovdiv and Bulgaria show interest in any news on the market regarding their boat. So similar thefts are expected to soon become a fact in the country as well.
