They could have just taken the GPS out of the car.

 Certainly are good ideas.

 This is worth reminding.

 This  gives us something to think about with all our  new 
electronic  technology.
 GPS
 A friend  had their car broken into while they were at a  
football game.  Their  carwas parked  on the green which was 
adjacent to the football  stadium and specially allotted to 
football  fans.  Things stolen from the car included  a garage 
door remote control, some money and a  GPS which had  been
 prominently  mounted on the  dashboard.
 When the  victims got home, they found that their house  had 
been ransacked and just about everything  worth anything had been  
stolen.
 The  thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the  house.   
Theythen used  the garage remote control to open the garage  door 
and gain entry to the house.  The  thieves knew the owners were 
at the football  game, they knew what time the game was scheduled  
to finish and so  theyknew how  much time they had to clean out 
the house.   It appeared  thatthey had  brought a truck to empty 
the house of its  contents.
 Something  to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your  home 
address in it.  Put a nearby address  (like a store or gas 
station) so you can still  find your way home if you need to, but 
no one  else would know where you live if your GPS were  stolen.
 MOBILE  PHONES -- I would  never have thought of  this.......
 This lady has now changed  her habit of how she lists her  
nameson her  mobile phone after her handbag was stolen.   Her 
handbag, which contained her cell phone,  credit card, wallet...  
etc...  was  stolen.
 20 minutes  later when she called her hubby, from a pay  
phonetelling  him what had happened, hubby says 'I received  your 
text asking about our Pin number and I've  replied a little while  
ago.'
 When they  rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told  them 
allthe money  was already withdrawn.  The thief had  actually 
used the stolen cell phone to text  'hubby' in the contact list 
and got hold of the  pin number.  Within 20 minutes he had  
withdrawn all the money from their bank  account.
 Moral of  the  lesson:
 Do not  disclose the relationship between you and the  people in 
your contact  list.
 Avoid  using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart,  Dad, 
Mom,  etc....
 And very importantly,  when sensitive info is being  
askedthrough  texts, CONFIRM by calling  back.

 Also, when you're being  text by friends or family to meet them  
somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that  the message came  
fromthem.   If you don't reach them, be very careful about  going 
places to  meet'family  and friends' who text  you.
 *PLEASE  PASS THIS  ON
 * I never  thought about the  above!
 As of now,  I no longer  have'home'  listed on my cell  phone.
 Even if  this does not pertain to you....Pass it on to  your 
family &  friends
