Extortion through impersonation of a police officer
Extortion is the practice of obtaining something, such as money, by using force or threats. It's not uncommon for criminals to impersonate police officers to deceive and extort people. This extortion can be carried out in two different ways: first, the criminal poses as a fake police officer, pretending to issue a ticket and extorting money in exchange for the vehicle's release. Alternatively, the fake police officer sets up a fake checkpoint. They pretend to be a police officer and attempt to seize the vehicle.
Defeating Criminal Tricks: How Someone Can Lose a Vehicle and Get It Back Again
If you are wondering what victims of police impersonation and extortion experience, here is an example.
An ordinary day for Budi began with a visit to the shopping centre to run a few errands and buy his wife a coffee. However, on that day, he noticed a suspicious vehicle following him after he left the shopping centre car park. Not long after leaving the shopping centre, the criminals made their move and took his vehicle. As soon as his car was stolen, Budi went to the nearest police station.
After reporting the vehicle theft case at the police station, Budi received a phone call from another fake police officer claiming that his vehicle had been found, and that Budi needed to meet the officer to pay for the release of the car. Budi began to grow suspicious, then used his Cartrack GPS tracking system to locate his vehicle, and he successfully recovered his car.
