NJ & Md. Raids a Part Of International Car Theft Bust, 9 Arrested in Connection With Alleged Export Ring. 72 stolen vehicles worth about $2.7 million were recovered by police in New Jersey last week. "Operation Auto Export" By Candace Rondeaux Washington Post Staff Writer August 07 2007 Authorities staged three raids in suburban Maryland and NJ in an effort to break up a major East Coast car-theft ring that allegedly stole more than 1,000 luxury vehicles in the past year and shipped them to West Africa and the Middle East. Mercedes with high-end stereos, BMWs with slick leather interiors, Hummers with shiny rims -- all were taken from dealerships and suburban driveways, carjacked off the street or stolen by other means in the Washington area, New York and New Jersey. They were packed onto container ships docked at New Jersey ports and shipped abroad, authorities said. "This is the largest auto-theft fencing ring I've seen since I've been on the force," said Lt. Rick Nuel, chief of the auto unit with the New Jersey State Police, one of 16 agencies involved in the probe. Ashraf Seleman of NJ was the freight forwarder who shipped the stolen cars from NJ, NY, Maryland, Virginia and FLORIDA to the Middle East. This intense investigation, starting in April 2007, revealed that groups from New Jersey, New York, Maryland and Virginia, with associations to Florida and Texas were delivering stolen vehicles to the Ports of Newark and Elizabeth to be exported to Greece, Jordan, Egypt, Dubai and various entry ports in West Africa. The vehicles being shipped overseas would sell for substantially higher, almost double, than the manufactures’ market value in the United States. Many of these vehicles were either stolen or overdue rental vehicles, while others were obtained by car-jacking, insurance fraud or identity theft. "Sometimes, it's almost chic," said Ben Jillett. "It's in vogue to run around in these countries with a license plate on that says Maryland on it or FLORIDA on it." In some respects, the alleged ring embodied the hierarchy of a large, legitimate business. Middlemen known as fences (Ashraf Seleman) acted as brokers between the car thieves and ringleaders. Last week, New Jersey authorities arrested Asare and another man in a stolen car on the New Jersey Turnpike, police said. Investigators have alleged that Asare used his connections in New York, New Jersey (Ashraf Seleman) and abroad to arrange shipments of stolen cars and to smooth the way for sales abroad by bribing customs officials in Africa. Investigators found $11,000 in the car, money that they believe was to be used to purchase stolen vehicles, according to New Jersey State Police. Asare was charged in New Jersey with trafficking, fencing and receiving stolen property and could face charges in Maryland, Nuel said. "If you have the contacts, there's a lot of money to be made, and he seemed to have a lot of contacts in Africa," Nuel said. About 6:30 a.m. yesterday, a team of Maryland State Police and at least one federal agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement descended on Asare's well-kept brick colonial home in the 10600 block of Birdie Lane in Upper Marlboro. The normal calm and quiet of the solidly middle-class suburban subdivision was broken by the sound of two officers pounding on Asare's door. Hearing no answer, officers in flak jackets slipped past a shiny black 2005 Nissan Maxima parked in the driveway. They pried open the home's garage door, entering with their guns drawn. An officer at the scene said they expected to spend several hours collecting evidence. Investigators also raided a commercial lot and an unknown location in Howard County. Investigators are reluctant to estimate how long the ring operated or how many luxury cars allegedly passed through Asare's network to ports in Africa. But Nuel said 72 stolen vehicles worth about $2.7 million were recovered by police in New Jersey last week -- including several stolen from Maryland. Investigators believe, however, that that number represents only a fraction of the car ring's actual take. "The [car] fencing operation is becoming a huge issue in the African countries," said Greg Terp, commander of the Miami-Dade police auto-theft unit. "It's a lucrative business. And, according to some of the information we've learned, you have a number of people in the various governments there driving BMWs and Mercedes that are stolen and shipped out of the Port of Elizabeth and Newark." Investigators believe Asare traveled with at least two other men from the Washington area to West Africa on errands for the ring, the law enforcement source said. One of the men, Vincent Robinson, is allegedly linked to the theft of more than 30 brand-new, high-end vehicles from dealerships in Fairfax, Montgomery and Baltimore counties, the source said. Fairfax Detective John Carney declined to discuss details of Robinson's case or his possible connections to the ring. But he confirmed that Robinson allegedly gained access to keys to the cars after he was hired at several local dealerships, including at least one in Fairfax. Police there took Robinson into custody June 1 on charges of auto theft, Carney said.

FBI officials said they believe the database could help break up far-flung terrorist networks, which are using vehicles stolen and smuggled from the United States. Bought and sold on the international black market, cars and trucks help fund criminal operations and can be turned into the terrorist weapon of choice against U.S. troops and Iraqi civilians: vehicles packed with explosives. The FBI declined to estimate how many stolen U.S. cars have turned up as car bombs in Iraq but said the number is believed to be at least in the dozens. The National Motor Vehicle Title Information System was created in 1992 to thwart motor vehicle thefts, but it remains a patchwork repository at best. Authorities say the system, which has the potential to track every car or truck in the country by its vehicle identification number, has languished because of years of local government inattention, a lack of urgency among state motor vehicle departments, and inconsistent federal funding. "A car bomb is the absolute favorite delivery method of terrorists," said Special Agent Ryan Toole of the FBI's Major Theft Unit in Washington, who is working to get the database completed. "Tracing that VIN is very, very important" to identifying where the vehicle originated or determining how it ended up in terrorist hands. Toole said American-made vehicles are particularly attractive to terrorists in places such as Iraq. Forensics specialists there have identified some bomb-rigged cars as vehicles that were swiped off American streets and sold overseas by criminal gangs and organized crime syndicates. Terrorists desire a "vehicle like a Suburban because it can hold a lot but it also blends in," said Toole, who is leading the FBI's efforts to complete the database. That particular Chevrolet SUV model is popular, he said, because "it looks like an American security vehicle" in Iraq and "they can get closer to their target than if it was a beat-up old Toyota." The Justice Department is now mounting a campaign to get the database fully online. It is urging insurance companies, auto manufacturers, and others to report relevant information and is also offering federal grants to motor vehicle departments - up to $50,000 each - to help defray their start-up costs. Authorities estimate that more than one million vehicles are stolen each year in the United States, yet only 35 percent of them are ever recovered. Theft rings are also using sophisticated tactics to avoid detection. One method is known as "cloning," in which thieves replace the 17- character VIN number - fastened beneath the windshield by the car's manufacturer - with the VIN number illegally lifted from another, legally registered vehicle of the same make, model, and year. Smugglers holding a stolen car with a cloned VIN number can command a premium for it on the international black market, while other stolen vehicles net just pennies on the dollar. Vehicle identification has also proven valuable in terrorism-related investigations in recent years. In 1993, when a truck packed with explosives detonated in a parking garage beneath the World Trade Center in New York, authorities cracked the case by tracing the VIN number of the vehicle to the Muslim extremists charged with the deadly attack. More recently, the case against the suspected terrorist cell that allegedly plotted to blow up John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York includes evidence of falsified vehicle registration documents. Meanwhile, law enforcement officials have uncovered a crime syndicate in Los Angeles that is believed to have shipped stolen vehicles to the breakaway Russian region of Chechnya, a hotbed of Muslim extremist activity. Toole, the FBI agent, said stolen American vehicles continue to show up in the hands of Iraqi insurgents. "There is a very strong link to terrorism," said Jerry Cox, an attorney for the National Insurance Crime Bureau, which fights insurance fraud and vehicle theft on behalf of more than 1,000 insurance providers and members of the automotive industry. "The people who profit are not just joy riders down the street," Cox said. "They are gangs. Some of those gangs are just thugs and some of them are terrorists." Yet without a national database, most law enforcement agencies and customs officials have little chance of effectively intercepting stolen vehicles, which on first inspection can appear to be properly documented. Currently, 20 states - including Massachusetts and Vermont - contribute information to the national vehicle database, but authorities in those states cannot cross-check auto information against the data of other states. Twenty-one other states and the District of Columbia are not linked into the system at all, including Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Maine. California, which leads the nation with more 250,000 car thefts every year, is not linked into the national database. _________________________________________________ STOLEN/ USED CAR SCAM AND THE TERRORIST GROUP, THE PALESTINIAN ISLAMIC JIHAD (PIJ), IN TAMPA FLORIDA In Tampa Fl the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) has a base of operations receiving counterfeit DVD's, CD's and Microsoft Vista programs which they sell in a variety of grocery stores and music stores across the greater Tampa area. The cash profits from these illegal counterfeit sales are used to purchase vehicles at auction (or from car thieves) by Tampa used car dealers linked to the PIJ and then shipped to Dubai UAE for re-export and for resale in Sharjah UAE (largest used car outlet in the Middle East) at up to 3 times the retail prices in the USA. The cash proceeds from the Dubai/Sharjah used car sales are then in turn deposited in the Arab Bank which has branch's in Dubai UAE, Sharjah UAE, Amman Jordan, Gaza and the West Bank. The PIJ has a strong following in Gaza (some of the Tampa used car dealers are from Gaza) and the PIJ has it's "home office" in Damascus Syria with it's ex- Tampa Fl and one of the FBI's most wanted terrorists, leader Ramadan Abdallah Shalah. Shallah was one of the founding members of the PIJ in the late 1970's, he was an operative for the PIJ when he lived in Tampa up to the Spring of 1995. (CBS/AP) Families of U.S. citizens killed or hurt in terrorist attacks in Israel have filed an $875 million lawsuit against Arab Bank, accusing it of channeling money to Palestinian terrorist groups and making insurance payments to beneficiaries of suicide bombers (Gaza Branch & ATM) "The Arab bank has been distributing monies to suicide bombers or the families of suicide bombers," said Israeli-American Rabbi Seth Mandel, whose teenage son was killed by Palestinian militants (PIJ). The lawsuit, filed Friday in federal court in the Eastern District of New York, claims the bank's New York branch laundered Saudi aid to terrorists. The branch first converted the money into dollars and then sent it to local branches in the West Bank and Gaza Strip where it was paid out to terrorists and terrorist organizations, the suit alleges. _____________________________________________________ Utah Used Car Dealer arrest could have al-Qaida tie in Iraq By Geoffrey Fattah and Ben Winslow Deseret Morning News April 28, 2006 12:40 a.m. The brother of a man suspected of ties to the al- Qaida terrorist group has been arrested in Utah and indicted on charges of loan fraud and money laundering. The question that federal authorities are trying to answer is whether Sharif Omar funneled some of that money to support terrorist activities. Omar is the brother of Shawqi Omar, who is being investigated for ties to al-Qaida in Iraq. "We do have some indications of where the money went," said Greg Bretzing, a special agent with the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force in Utah. "We know some went to Jordan overseas and a lot went to personal accounts. What exactly it was spent on or what happened to it overseas is still under investigation." Sharif Omar, 37, of Cottonwood Heights, appeared Thursday in U.S. District Court on four counts of bank fraud and money laundering. Family members looked on as U.S. marshals led Omar, in chains and wearing a red Salt Lake County Jail jumpsuit, into the courtroom. During the brief hearing, U.S. District Magistrate Judge David Nuffer ordered Omar released from custody. Asked if there were any terrorist ties between his brothers and al-Qaida, Gus Omar told the Deseret Morning News, "None whatsoever." "The money was coming from Jordan, not going there," he said as he walked quickly out of court Thursday. Emotions ran high outside the federal courthouse just before the hearing as family members scuffled with a Deseret Morning News photographer, threatening to hit him. Federal Protective Services (a division of the Department of Homeland Security) and Salt Lake City Police were investigating the altercation Thursday. Later, a member of Omar's family came outside the courthouse to apologize to news photographers, saying the family had been under a lot of stress since Sharif Omar's arrest. According to grand jury indictments handed up in October 2005 and unsealed this week, Omar and his brother-in-law, Ahmad Abudan, 35, of Chula Vista, Calif., took part in an auto loan fraud scheme that yielded $40,000. That money, according to officials, was then sent to a bank in the country of Jordan. "We're not saying — nor has it been alleged in any of the indictments — that this money has made its way into the hands of terrorists," Bretzing said. "What we are doing is investigating where that money's gone, what it's been used for, and certainly it is our responsibility to determine if it has been sent overseas, whose hands it's in and what the purpose is." FBI officials were trying to gain access to those accounts Thursday, but Jordanian banks are notorious for keeping account information under wraps. According to federal court documents, in March 2002, Omar used Abudan's 2001 Mercedes-Benz to take out a $40,000 loan from Utah First Credit Union, claiming the vehicle was his. At the time, Omar told the credit union employee that he needed the money for some home improvements. However, federal officials allege that Omar gave the money to his nephew, Ihab Ramadan, who is Abudan's stepson, and that Ramadan then wired $50,000 to a bank account in Amman, Jordan, called Amman General Trading LLC. Of interest to the FBI and terrorism investigators is Omar's brother, Shawqi Omar, who is in military custody in Iraq. A former Utahn, he repaired refrigerators while working to gain U.S. citizenship. Shawqi Omar was arrested in October 2004 in his Baghdad apartment, accused of working with Abu Musab al-Zarqawi by harboring foreign terrorists and plotting kidnappings. U.S. officials say al-Zarqawi was the leader of al-Qaida's terror campaign in Iraq that is blamed for hundreds of deaths, both American and Iraqi. "If they have any ties or any proof about it, they would have charged him by now," he said Thursday. Since October, Shawqi Omar has been held in U.S. military custody on suspicion of terrorism, but he has not been charged with any crime. Back in Utah, indictments and arrests were also leveled against Shawqi and Sharif's brother, Bassam Omar, 42, of San Diego, and nephew Ihab Ramadan, 27, of Chula Vista, Calif. Alaa "Alex" Ramadan, 29, a resident of Jordan, was arrested Wednesday at the Los Angeles International Airport. Federal prosecutors say Sharif Omar's activities are part of a larger scheme of loan fraud involving other family members. A six-count indictment against Alaa Ramadan and Bassam Omar says a mortgage fraud scheme involving homes in Sandy and Bountiful netted the two men $121,399. Another indictment against Alaa Ramadan and three non-family associates, including a loan officer and a licensed appraiser, alleges the group took part in another mortgage scheme involving a home in Salt Lake City's Avenues neighborhood that netted the group about $125,712. The indictment also charges the group with money-laundering and mail fraud. In the final indictment, Ramadan and two other non- family associates are charged with conspiring in an auto loan scheme that netted them $40,000. In court Thursday, Sharif Omar was handed a copy of the indictment against him. Federal prosecutors did not oppose a request to release Omar, saying he was not believed to be a flight risk or a danger to the community. However, FBI agents were quick to say they were not suggesting Sharif Omar or anybody else charged are terrorists. "We're not saying that. There have been no allegations to that effect. We're aware of who they're related to and what he's involved with," Bretzing said, referring to Shawqi Omar. "But that has not been charged or alleged in any of the proceedings. We just have to investigate all aspects of that." A tentative trial date has been set for June ______________________________________________________ $2,000,000.00 REWARD Dead or Alive RUN WHITEY RUN, we are on you EX-BOSTON USED CAR DEALER WHITEY BULGER (WAS NOT) SPOTTED IN ITALY BY DEA COP MAY 07.

Police Bust Shows New Tactics For Fighting Terror/ WALL STREET JOURNAL LAPD BUSTS INTERNATIONAL STOLEN CAR RACKET SENDING VEHICLES TO THE CHECHEN MUSLIM TERRORISTS FOR RESALE, WALL STREET JOURNAL CLAIMS THIS TO BE A "BREAKTHROUGH CASE". Fusion Center assists Los Angeles police. Since 9/11 the LAPD have arrested nearly 200 people, both American citizens and foreign nationals, with suspected ties to terrorist organizations. The charges against them have ranged from marriage fraud to identity theft to illegal weapons possession. Each arrest was the result of a conventional criminal investigation using California state law with no need for warrantless phone taps or secret court orders. After being given the nod to investigate by his bosses, Mr. Severino put together a team of 11 detectives. The first thing they did was visit informants they had developed in Russian and Armenian organized-crime gangs from earlier investigations. The inquiries pointed the investigators to a Chechen businessman affiliated with an organization billing itself as a charity called Global Human Services, or GHS. The group claimed to be sending large shipments of humanitarian aid regularly to Russia, Armenia, Georgia and Jordan. Several things during the investigation immediately caught Detective Severino's attention. The first were photos prominently displayed in the businessman's home of him standing alongside Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev, known during his lifetime as the "Butcher of Beslan." The second was the fact that GHS's license had been revoked by the state of California in February 2004 for failure to file a 2003 income-tax return. Moreover, it turned out that GHS was incorporated in November 1999 as a regular business and wasn't registered as a nonprofit charity. For Mr. Severino, those facts sent alarm bells ringing. The investigators continued to dig. The LAPD informed the Department of Homeland Security that the group was sending aid overseas despite having lost its license. In June 2005, Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspectors in Houston pulled two GHS shipping containers in for inspection. Inside they found some cartons of women's shoes -- and two expensive, late-model sport- utility vehicles hidden behind a false wall of each container. The cars were legally registered to Los Angeles residents. After the ships set sail, their owners reported the vehicles stolen to collect insurance money. The containers and their cargo were destined for the Republic of Georgia. Mr. Severino and his team went to the FBI requesting funds and support to follow the shipments to Georgia, saying that they suspected that the racket was part of a Chechen rebel funding scheme. The FBI at first refused, saying that all they saw was a car-theft ring. "Then I showed them the picture of our businessmen with Basayev," Mr. Severino says. The FBI approved the trip. "It became clear to the FBI that the LAPD was onto something," says Mr. Miller, now an assistant FBI director in Washington. Once in Georgia, the LAPD worked with Georgian authorities and the FBI, seizing another 14 stolen cars listed on customs manifests as "aid." Back in Los Angeles, police started to investigate the cars' owners. What they pieced together was an alleged scheme in which GHS enticed owners to give the group their vehicles and report them as stolen. GHS would then ship the cars overseas. According to the LAPD, once the vehicles were in transit, the owners would report the cars stolen and collect the insurance money. In Georgia, Chechens close to the banned rebel groups would sell the cars at several times their U.S. value. In all, the LAPD detectives identified 200 such shipments to Georgia over the past few years, worth at least $5 million. That figure doesn't include losses to the insurance companies due to fraudulent claims. ___________________________________________________________ Sarasota private investigator Bill Warner & WBI Terrorism Research Center, used car exporters linked to terrorism; Stolen cars linked to terror attacks overseas Updated Tue. Jul. 17 2007 A new report that says stolen cars from Canada and the U. S. are turning up in the hands of terrorists overseas is raising new questions about security at Canada's ports. Tens of millions of dollars in stolen cars, head out of Canada's ports and overseas every year. With one car stolen every three minutes in Canada, the cost for all Canadians who pay insurance premiums is more than a billion dollars. "You've got twenty to thirty-thousand higher-end stolen vehicles leaving Canada every year and they are worth $50,000 each," Richard Dubin, vice-president of investigative services of the Insurance Bureau of Canada, told CTV News. Cops Bust Huge GTA-Based Auto Theft Rings Thursday August 30, 2007 CityNews.ca Staff. There are 19 of them, from various parts of Ontario. And if what police say they did is true, they've been very, very busy. The Provincial Auto Theft Team (PATT), an Ontario- wide task force that includes members from Toronto, York and Durham cops as well as the OPP, have broken up five huge auto and fraud theft rings that targeted high end luxury vehicles and other property. Authorities claim the men involved in the ring wound up hauling in more $1.5 million worth of merchandise. And the ill gotten goods they recovered span a remarkably wide spectrum. In addition to expensive automobiles like Lincolns, BMWs, Hummers, Cadillac Escalades and Mini Coopers, cops discovered 6 boats, 9 all-terrain vehicles, 5 commercial lawn mowers, some riding lawn tractors, a few washers and dryers, 9 weapons, $55,000 in cash, and more than $800,000 in drugs. They allege the suspects also had a large amount of false Ontario drivers' licenses, Canadian Citizenship cards and a host of bogus Social Insurance numbers with them. It took authorities five months to bring the gangs down, led by undercover officers who managed to gain the trust of those believed to have led the groups. Cops posed as purchasers, exporters and receivers of the goods, as they gathered evidence to close in on the men in a project they dubbed X5. "This was not random or petty car theft," declares Det. Staff Sgt. Scott Mills. The groups involved were well organized. The cars and the SUVs were destined for West Africa and the Middle East. Many of those accused are from Toronto, while others hail from Brampton, Mississauga, Markham and Vaughan. Car parts smuggled from Israel to Iraq By YAAKOV KATZ AND JPOST STAFF Stolen car parts are being smuggled out of Israel into Jordan, and from there are shipped to Iraq, the police's anti-car theft unit Etgar has discovered. Etgar recently cracked one of the car parts smuggling rings and stopped five shipments on their way to Jordan. Following the discovery, security forces decided to put an end to the transfer of replacement car part via border crossings, Army Radio reported. In December, citing a drastic increase in car thefts, Internal Security Minister Gideon Ezra announced the reestablishment of the Etgar unit. Etgar was initially established in 1998 but was dismantled at the beginning of 2004, due to cuts in the police's operational budget, after police succeeded in lowering the number of car thefts from 40,000 to 25,000. Ezra said that there was a connection between the lull in terror attacks and the recent increase in car thefts. The Trans-Israel highway or Road 6, Ezra added, assists car thieves in quickly transporting stolen cars from one part of the country to another part. 'Once the car is stolen in the North it can be found within less than an hour in a chop shop in the South,' he said. The main reason for the reestablishment of the unit was the partnership the police struck with the National Insurance Association, in which the NIA has agreed pay for 40 percent of the unit's budget. AL-QAEDA IN IRAQ HEAD GUY IS CAR- TRUCK BOMB EXPERT /BOSTON GLOBE ABU AYYUB al-MASRI THE AL-QAEDA HEAD GUY IN IRAQ IS A CAR/TRUCK BOMB EXPERT, PRIOR TO ASCENDING TO HIS NEW POSITION IN JUNE 2006, HE WAS IN CHARGE OF OPERATIONS IN SOUTHERN IRAQ TO THE SAUDI ARABIAN BORDER, HE HAS EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORKINGS OF ALL KINDS OF CARS, TRUCKS AND TANKERS. He has been a terrorist since 1982, when he joined Ayman al-Zawahri's Egyptian Islamic Jihad. AL-MASRI IS LINKED FROM 2004-2005 TO SALEH AL-OUFI THE USED CAR DEALER AND HEAD OF AL-QAEDA IN SAUDI ARABIA. Saudi analysts say SALEH AL-OUFI has been a formidable foe, he has been a key figure in Al-Qaeda since 1985. The Texas SUV found in Falluja Nov. 18 2004 was one of al-Masri's truck bombs, the vehicle came from Houston TX via Dubai UAE to iraq, the used car company that sent the vehicle is based in Houston and Tampa Fl. Investigators said they are comparing several other cases where vehicles evidently stolen in the United States wound up in Syria or other Middle East countries and ultimately into the hands of Iraqi insurgent groups -- including Al Qaeda in Iraq. Inspector John E. Lewis, deputy assistant director of the FBI for counterterrorism said the origins of the vehicles in question were unearthed by tracing the vehicle identification numbers, or VINs. Some of the automobiles can be easily identified, specialists said, while others have had their VINs ground down or have been fitted with fake ones. Investigators believe the cars were stolen by local car thieves in US cities, then smuggled to waiting ships at ports in Los Angeles, Seattle, and Houston, among other cities (Tampa). QUOTE FROM CNN ARTICLE, "al-Masri began to work with al-Zarqawi in Falluja, "then he later became, we think, basically the Emir of Southern Iraq" for the group, Major General William Caldwell said".

SCRAP-SALVAGE CARS PURCHASED IN THE USA BY INTERNATIONAL CAR THEFT RING/GULF NEWS SCRAP-SALVAGED LEXUS SUV'S PURCHASED IN THE USA BY INTERNATIONAL CAR THEFT RING FOR THEIR VIN AND COMPUTER; Dubai Police have arrested three of a five-member high-tech gang of car thieves who stole 13 Lexus 4x4s, the men were purchasing similar vehicles from abroad (USA) that had been written off in accidents from on-line Auto Salvage Auctions as seen below, the Lexus RX 330, ACV price is the retail price prior to accident, selling price will be around $3,000 plus $1,200 to ship to Dubai. There was a Salvage Auto Auction, on-line, from South Tampa Friday 11/17/2006 with over 500 wrecked cars for sale, the buyers on-line were from the USA and Dubai UAE, Sharjah UAE, Jeddah SA, Nigeria and Karachi PK. The Dubai car thieves brought the salvaged USA Lexus SUV's into the UAE, where they were taken to a scrap dealer. In Dubai the gang stole Luxury 4x4 Lexus cars which were broken into in a span of three to five minutes. The cars were taken away, and their personalised vehicle computers were replaced with the ones from the vehicles purchased from the USA Auto Salvage Auctuions. "The chassis numbers were changed (VIN) and the car-model plate replaced. That gave the stolen cars a different identity (a "Black Car") - they now appeared to be legitimate vehicles purchased from abroad (USA).
