#1 Warning if you're visiting any shows!!

Post by PaulColeman » Thu Aug 11, 2016 8:16 am

Some bloke went to the Ford Show at Silverstone the other week and later found a homemade tracker fitted to his car...

So, if you're visiting any shows in your pride and joy this summer best park in a flood for 5 minutes when you come out to make sure you're not being tracked!!

I believe there were a number of cars which also had trackers fitted to them at that particular show.

Was mentioned in a thread the other day plus you can now get a jammer to block such devices - see here...

At least in the 'good old days' they had the decency to follow you home. Now they're just getting lazy!!

@Paul,

In the new economy information workers do one thing, others do.... other things.

If you find the tracker attach it to a DHL or any other convenient delivery van. Should keep them busy!

A GPS jammer is legal to buy, but illegal to use....

A decent GPS/GSM detector would work, but not cheap..
