DRIVERS are rushing to buy a \u00a36 pouch which could save you \u00a31,000s after cops issued an urgent warning.<\/p>\n
Many modern cars have fobs that allow you to open the vehicle remotely and start the engine without turning a key in the ignition.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While the latest keyless entry systems and push-button ignitions are convenient for the honest motorist, they're also very handy for crooks.<\/p>\n
That's why Northamptonshire Police tweeted: "If your car has a keyless entry fob, using a faraday pouch to store it overnight can protect your vehicle from thieves."<\/p>\n
They recommended the Defender Signal Blocker – a police-approved product which costs around \u00a36.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0high-quality faraday pouch combats two of the biggest security and safety issues: relay attacks on vehicle fobs and distracted driving caused by mobile phone use.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When sealed inside the pouch, proximity fobs are fully protected from tech-savvy car thieves, ensuring your vehicle cannot be stolen.<\/p>\n
Similarly, a sealed mobile phone cannot receive any calls or notifications, leaving a driver free to focus on the road.<\/p>\n
Once removed, all missed alerts come through to the phone within five seconds.<\/p>\n
It comes as a TikTok revealed a little-known key fob hack that could save drivers a fortune if they get locked out of their cars.<\/p>\n
