Submission + - Car thieves use laptop and malware to steal more than 30 Jeeps (abc13.com)

altnuc writes: Two thieves in Houston steal more than 30 Jeeps by using a laptop and a stolen database. The thieves simply look up the vehicles VIN number in a stolen database, reprogram a generic key fob, start the car, and drive away.

Chrysler has confirmed that more than 100 of their vehicles have been stolen in the Houston area since November.

Chrysler/Jeep owners should always make sure their vehicles are locked!
