"With advances in technology, thieves are now able to gain access to your vehicle by redirecting the wireless signal from your key fob. They only need to be within a few metres of your car key to get the signal, even if it's inside your home," said Det Insp Bell."We are urging the public to be vigilant, especially those with keyless entry cars."
Motorists are also advised to put keys in a signal-blocking pouch, such as a Faraday Bag, turn off wireless signals on your fob when it is not being used
