HiGear
in California Closed down -
HiGear,
a luxury car sharing company based in
California, shut down this week because of
several thefts of their members’
vehicles. It appears that a ring of
professional car thieves couldn’t pass up
the temptation of stealing the range of luxury
and classic cars after simply being handed the
keys to the vehicles. The robbers used stolen
credit cards and identities to bypass the
member security checks run on them by HiGear.
Four cars belonging to the scheme’s
members were stolen, amounting to $300,000.
It’s possible that the members even
handed the keys over to the thieves
themselves.
