Concealed laptops stolen from cars. Lithium batteries identification gadget is the cause is theory. True ?

Question

In my city a lot of laptops are stolen from cars even though these laptops have been concealed under seats, shopping items. Totally invisible - but thievies are able to identify cars with these lap tops. And they are stolen. The theory making its way around the city is that thievies have a sensor gadget that that identify lithium ion batteries and as a result can pinpoint devices that uses these batteries be it phones or laptops. I'm no technical person. But is there such a thing in this world. If so what can be done to blunt this ? Thanks.

Answer 1

Somebody has to put those lap tops into the car in the first place and that's where I think the problems lies. All you need to do is hang out at the airport, coffee shop, school, library ect. and wait till somebody shows up with a lap top. Then you wait till the victem is not watching the laptop and the car and strike. If it's information you want, know who handles the information and follow the person. When they aren't looking, strike.
