SCAMS: Protect your car

As part of Project Majestic, York Regional Police have recovered 64 stolen cars in Malta and returned the vehicles, valued at $3.5 million, to Canada.

Investigators found the stolen cars inside shipping containers in the Republic of Malta, where they were about to be sold illegally.

York Regional Police worked with the Canada Border Service Agency, the Malta Port Authority and Customs, and Equité Association to locate the cars.

Project Majestic began early in 2021.

Theft on video

Protect your car:

1. Park in the garage if you can;
2. Use a locking device like a steering wheel lock;
3. Store your keys in a Faraday bag;
4. Do not hang your keys by the entrance door.
