Apple AirTags have quickly become a popular item from the technology giant since they were released this year.
Heralded as the new gadget to help the public from losing their keys or to find a lost dog,
"Since September 2021, officers have investigated five incidents where suspects have placed small tracking devices on high-end vehicles so they can later locate and steal them," the release says."Brand name 'air tags' [sic] are placed in out-of-sight areas of the target vehicles when they are parked in public places like malls or parking lots. Thieves then track the targeted vehicles to the victim's residence, where they are stolen from the driveway.
On its website, Apple says it has incorporated features in the AirTags to discourage"unwanted tracking," including audible alarms and messages about nearby tags that pop up on iPhones. Apple says if the AirTag is from a lost item or from an item you are borrowing, that users can tap the"Pause Safety Alerts" to turn off the notifications or"learn about this AirTag" to see its serial number and if the owner has marked it as lost.
