Posted Nov 2021 Car Theft in Waverley - Police Notice We have suffered a number of keyless vehicle thefts in Waverley recently and so has the county in general. Offences seem to be happening overnight. Thieves can use a number of different methods to access a vehicle and drive it away, often without the need to physically obtain the owner's keys.
•One such method is a relay attack, where a relay tool is used to fool the vehicle into thinking that the key fob is either inside the vehicle or very close to it.
•Another is signal jamming, where a device transmitting on the same radio frequency as the remote key fob is used to jam the signal that locks the car. When the vehicle owner presses the lock button on their key fob, the command is prevented from reaching the vehicle, so it is left open.
•A third method is where a blank key fob can be programmed to start the engine and unlock the doors.
What can you do to avoid keyless theft?
•Always lock your car and keep key fobs away from doors and windows. Storing your keys in a metal tin will also help to block their signal. Alternatively, look into buying a 'Faraday pouch' which is made of signal blocking materials.
•Switch off your key if you can - look at your vehicle manual to see if your key has this function.
•Use physical measures such as steering wheel locks and CCTV to put thieves off. Please report any crimes, incidents or concerns direct to our contact centre at the time by calling 101, or via our website/live chat at www.surrey.police.uk (in a non-emergency) or 999 if there’s an emergency (where a crime is in progress or life is in danger). Further Crime Prevention Advice can be found on the Surrey Police Web pages. https://www.surrey.police.uk/cp/crime-prevention/
