Criminal Stalkers Can Easily Use This ‘Weapon of Choice’ to Hunt You Down

Weapon

If you want to stalk someone, there’s a clear “weapon of choice.” For less than $30 bucks you can track anyone with AirTag. There is a downside. If they or a close friend have an iPhone, your bug can be detected and exterminated. When they are, they can often be tracked back to who planted them. You could end up getting exterminated as well, considering the level of street justice, these days.

A weapon made for stalkers

Modern technology brings both convenience and danger in the same useful weapon. If you’re the kind of person who forgets where you leave your car keys, Apple has the device for you. It’s also perfect if you think your partner might be going someplace they shouldn’t.

Then again, if the person you wish to track isn’t yet your partner, or maybe even has a restraining order out on you because they don’t think they ever want to be your partner, they can be secretly tracked, too. The phrase “over my dead body” is so overrated.

If you happen to notice “strange chirping sounds” in your vicinity, it might mean something.

Another big clue that you’re being targeted by a tracking weapon is an alert on your iPhone declaring “an unknown device” is following you around. That’s probably an AirTag tracking your every move. The purposes are rarely harmless if you don’t already know it is being used.

As reported by Fox News, it’s “one of the latest crime trends that tech-savvy criminals are using to carry out car thefts and stalkings.

Use of the device as a weapon “has pushed police departments across the nation to warn residents to watch out for the new tactic.

Just like traditional stalking

The hobby of “stalking” has been around forever. “In a traditional stalking case, typically you have people who are making contact or unwanted contact with a victim, repeatedly,” explains Sargent James Isaacs with the police in Dearborn, Michigan.

They’re following them where they work, where they go to school, where they are going to eat.” AirTags are just the latest weapon in a growing arsenal of technology. “Using the AirTag is just another way for them to do that in a more surreptitious way.

The Dearborn jurisdiction has had a rash of similar incidents since last year. Enough to warn the public “to be on high alert” for criminals using Apple AirTags as a weapon, “to steal or illegally follow people.

The ad says, “Ping It. Find It.” Your keys, wallet, pet, husband, car, car you would like to steal, vulnerable person to molest… The list is endless. It has “a built-in speaker that chirps when engaged.” Not only that, you can “use an iPhone to track its exact location.

Ellie Tindall knows all about them and how they work as a weapon. “I was helping a friend move out of her apartment and my car trunk was open and it was unlocked, and I was going in and out with boxes and loads of her things.” She was alerted on her phone that “an unknown accessory was following” her.

I went outside to check it out because I saw this on TikTok that this is a thing criminals are doing for robbery or sex trafficking. When I went outside to go look for the tag there was two men in hoodies standing by my car waiting, and the second they saw me open the door with three men they turned around and sprinted down the street.
