Back in January we had a run in of break ins resulting in the work car being stolen from my house.

The thieves post on what I think is instagram about it and I have been sent these two photos. (Second in comments)

The main photo is from today so it appears I’m being watched after getting the car back

Any way of finding the account?

      Facebook posts and driving to the town they’re always taken too. Normally they get driven there and burnt out etc.

      But they crashed it on the way and abandoned it on the side of the road

    Pass the info to local law enforcement who can contact the social media company to obtain more infos about the account.

      Have, the person who sent this to me sends it all to them.

      There’s been no result.

      They post this kind of thing every week different cars etc

        If law enforcement won’t help, then you’ll need a lawyer who can get a court to issue a subpoena. This would probably be in the context of stalking/restraining order.

        I can almost guarantee that Facebook, with its extensive data mining, knows exactly who it is.

          Yeah going to call the police again this morning and contact my lawyer since we thought about a civil suit when one of the thieves was caught but got off by being undersge and saying he found it on the side of the road despite being on camera in the yard

    Sorry i dont understand what’s going on.

    Your car got stolen.

    You got the car back.

    Then someone posted a photo of it today.

    The conclusion is, the people who stole your car are now following you / watching you?

    Why would car thieves be watching you?

      To steal it again?

      The day after it came back someone tried to break in and steal it again setting off the newc alarm system.

      Then they tried again the following night.

      Then this photo was taken today and posted on the instagram page

          Because last time it was stolen they got 60k worth of tools i assume.

          It’s also the most frequently stolen model of car where I’m from.

          They still have the original keys after the last theft probably not realising it has all new locks.

            Sensor lights in yard, combination club-lock for steering wheel, hidden-in-cab kill-switch installed through a relay, support any initiative for a local ‘night place’ for youth.

            These kids are disaffected and need support options overnight.

    It’s probably kids. In usa it seems like 11-15 year olds donthis for “fun”. Shit here they kill homeless people for fun too.

    Id dig into the user names on the top left and the watermarked one. Search Google and ask chatgpt to find other usage of those usernames.

    Looks like edguy lost boys is their crew name.

    Have you thought of setting up a trail cam/dash cam? might be able to catch the person taking pics
