 Here is some thing you could use, if you have a car...

 
THIS HAS BEEN CHECKED ON SNOPES;  we have checked with the local police and they confirmed that this is happening.

While traveling, my friend stopped at the roadside reststop with bathrooms, vending machines, etc . He came out to his car less then returned 5 minutes later and found someone had gotten into his car, and stolen his cell phone, laptop computer, GPS navigator, briefcase...


He called the police and since there were no signs of his car being broken into- the police told him that there is a device that robbers are using now to clone your security20code when you lock your doors on your car using your key-chain locking device (transmitter). They sit a distance away and watch for their next victim. Since they know you are going inside of the store, restaurant, or bathroom, it gives them a few minutes to steal and run. The police officer said to be sure to manually lock your car door by hitting the lock button inside the car, that way if there is someone sitting in a parking lot watching for their next victim, it will not be you.


When you hit the lock button on your car upon exiting...it does not send the security code, but if you walk away and use th e door lock on your key chain- it sends the code thru the airwaves where it can be stolen.


I just wanted to let you know about this...  it may be something totally new to you...and this is real... it just happened this past week.


So be aware of this and please pass this note on...look how many times we all lock our doors with our keys (transmitters)...just to be sure we remembered to lock them....and bingo the guys have our code....and whatever was in the car...can be gone in minutes.

Unlocking the car with the Transmitter is not a problem since you are there and should be leaving soon... Just do not unlock & relock  then walk away...
