A mother and daughter discovered another person was repeatedly accessing and driving the daughter’s car on Sept. 22, according to an Athens-Clarke County Police Department report. The mother told police the car “had been moving around in the complex.” She saw the vehicle parked in its usual spot at approximately 8 p.m., but near 10:30 p.m., she noticed the car was missing, according to the report. Later, they found the car had been returned to where it was previously parked. They saw a woman exit the car and enter the building where the daughter lives, according to the report. The daughter told police there have been three occasions where she found her car parked in a different spot than

where she left it. The car has been moved since the key was changed at the dealership about two weeks prior. The key was replaced after the car displayed a message stating “car does not recognize key” even though it was the same key the daughter had always used, according to the report. According to the report, “there was technology found via the internet that very clearly allows for the ‘spoofing’ of electronic keys.” The family was advised to get a steering wheel lock and cameras to put in and near the car. ¼¼Mother
