Oops i forgot to put a smiley on the end of my post sorry :lol:

When a stranger goes on public forum with a series of apparent coincidences like something out of a hollywood movie , locks picked, cars tampered with phones tapped etc. and asks for help from other strangers for a problem which should realy be dealt with by the cops its going to sound a bit dodgy. ( maybe the cops are the problem here )

If some one had the ability to hack your phone, internet and mobile and track your car then you can be sure they would have been able to lock a cheapo padlock after opening it.

I am not using scare tactics just questioning your motives for your post, for the same reasons you are on here i suppose. (you ask a question about lock picking which is relevant to the forum but quickly move in another direction which is not)

It is perfectly reasonable to assume you are the victim of some sort of crime as it is also reasonable to assume that everything is not what it seems and you may or may not have other motives for your post here.

In my post i said you MAY be fishing for info I did not say you where or accuse you of anything.

If that offends you then i am sorry it was not my intention and i hope you can understand why I and other people who responded to your post are a bit suspicious and wary.

Perhaps this thread should be locked :idea:

Given all the information you've uncovered on the secret tracking device, I'd just like to offer a caution against the usual counter-measures: studies have shown that aluminum foil hats will actually amplify the tracking frequencies that you've identified in your car.

People lets not forget the dangers of social networking sites either, if someone passes a comment on something or knows more than you think they should it doesnt mean they are hacking your phone or tracking your car etc. it could simply be based on info you have placed in the public domain for everybody to see good and bad. I know someone who puts directions to her house for kids parties etc.

I am finished with this thread now :roll:

Thanks Mgyvr for that paper on the MIT testing of aluminum foil helmets, very informative

I prefer a copper mesh layer in my outer clothing to take the sting out of those tasers.

Thanks for your info, I do have an update 'I am not in a looney bin' not that I have ever turned down free food and board lol.

I understand some negative comments here coming from private investigators and sad people or just BIG skeptic's like myself....I can handle it. Also a few comments from the troll community i dont give a 2nd thought.

I wish to now finish this post as it has run its course and although i do have an update due to the sensitive information i just cant blurt it out anymore here....in publc.

I would like to thank those that took the time to try to help...Cheers

I would just add that if your fob or key head uses a battery simply remove it to determine if the intermediate unlocking is caused by the fob or something more nefarious.

On the subject of Fords here's a weird one for you. I drove a Ford Focus that didn't have power door locks. One day I drove the car and stopped at services and the door locks started locking and unlocking on their own. The car also wouldn't restart. Strange thing was the car not starting was a mechanical failure (timing belt) not an electrical problem.

I'm glad I got rid of the car, I think someone was tracking me.

This post has made me chuckle a bit.

I know a bit about this kinda stuff. Anyone using this level of equipment has to be a professional, either that or you are completely mad (too many spy films) or you have done something/know something. Not that anyone here wants to know about what you do/have done.

If you are being watched or followed for any reason I suggest telling the police who will be able to help you. It is against the law to use listening devices or attach trackers of any sort (warrant is needed), you have to be law enforcement/security operative with legal authority to do so (UK).

If some high tech spying was going on-you wouldn't even know! The guy's that do this work are really good at what they do.

So my view is that you are way to paranoid or off your trolley, I'll let you decide.

Regards
