Re: Am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

Luckily my house keys are on the same keyring as my work-related keys, which were with me at the time. The car key was the only one taken unless the other keyring was stolen at another time, which I don't think is likely. So I think I'm okay on that, hopefully.

I hadn't thought of it being illegal, so thanks for that suggestion. I'll have to look into it.

ayrt

That's good to hear. I would still be hypervigilant for a while to make sure your house has not been compromised in any case. Just notice if anything has moved that you haven't touched and so forth. If you have a tiny video camera I would put it in your car or home.

You're welcome. I hope it all works out for you.

Re: Am I overreacting?

On second thought, I think I might just go ahead and get my house locks changed. I have no idea how much that costs, but the idea of someone coming in when I'm not home and messing with my stuff or doing God knows what else, and having that hanging over my head would drive me insane.

I just don't understand what the hell either of them was/is thinking, but I guess I'll never understand crazy people. Ugh.

Re: Am I overreacting?

Do whatever makes you feel safe. If that means paying extra to change your house locks, do it.

That's just it. They probably weren't thinking. Some people have no concept of boundaries.

sa

Also, while you're getting all this worked out try to keep your car with the compromised locks in a safe place they can't get to so they can't do anything to it.

Re: Am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

Unfortunately I don't have a garage and there's really nowhere safe I can park it that's within walking distance of my house but I can see the driveway from my window so hopefully I'll see if anything weird happens. I'll feel a lot better once I have some answers, though. I've left messages but unfortunately most businesses are already closed, so I'm going to try again first thing tomorrow morning.

Re: Am I overreacting?

Maybe you could tell your neighbors and ask them to watch out for you? Like, "Hey, someone stole the keys to my car. If you see anyone other than me around it can you call me and let me know? I would really appreciate it." It really depends on the relationship you have with your neighbors though.

Re: Am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I've talked to my next door neighbor about it. She's the only one I really know, and she's a retired older lady so she's home all the time. She's agreed to keep an eye on things while I'm at work until this thing is resolved and let me know if she sees anything suspicious.

Re: Am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

That's good to hear. It seems like you know what to do and you have all the bases covered. I wish you good luck.

Re: Am I overreacting?

NA

In the meantime, or if you can't get the locks on your car changed, you could get something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Original-Club-Steering-Wheel-Lock/dp/B0000CBILL

(I have no idea if that's the best one out there or at a good price or whatever, I just grabbed the first link that came up under Google to give an example of what I'm talking about).

Basically, the idea is that it's a bar that goes across your wheel and requires another key to unlock in order to be able to steer the car.

I fully support the idea of going to the police if they don't give you your keys back - but even if they do, ewww, change the locks anyway. You can't trust these people.
