If you see a coin in your door handle don t trust it.
If you see a cloth in your door handle.
So i live in an apartment complex in colorado.
While you re out you re exposed to germs and viruses that can follow you back into your car.
And my dog was barking at the door so i went to go check the door and this is like 2 00 am and i find a piece of white cloth tied to my door handle so i think my apartment is tagged for something i don t know what for but its marked.
The towel is meant to signal a need for help.
If you experience a breakdown move the vehicle so all four wheels are off the pavement turn on your emergency flashers get all passengers out on the side away from traffic tie a white cloth on the left door handle or antenna and raise the hood.
New scams come out every month or even every week and you don t want to risk falling for them and lose your money car or even get seriously injured.
You probably wouldn t notice it on the passenger side or one of the rear doors but when you go to lock your car the coin will keep that door from locking properly leaving the door open for thieves.
The thief wouldn t even have to follow you anywhere.
If you see a coin in your car door handle run and call the police.
Whether your car is sitting in your driveway or a lot when you are shopping the thief slides a nickel or penny in the door handle.
A good idea is to sanitize these parts on a daily basis.
How are they using a coin to enter your car.

It involves putting a penny or another coin in the car door handle just like this.
Car door handles and controls keys or start.
