Press Release

Theft Averted Thanks to CAPTOR

“All along my company has been an Allianz insurance customer. I have been fortunate as I have been given a CAPTOR Tracking & Recovery System which has been installed into my Toyota Fortuner just a few months ago.

This morning, I and my wife received a SMS message from CAPTOR stating that there was a violation in my car. Opening my upstairs window, I noticed a black car parked outside my house gate. I sensed something was wrong, so I went downstairs and out my house to the gate. There I noticed the black car ignition was on with a driver inside. Then I looked at my Fortuner and noticed a shadow in my car. I then shouted and immediately an unknown partner bolted out of my car and ran into the black car and sped away.

I am indeed fortunate and obligated to Allianz Insurance and CAPTOR for the early warning to save my car. Otherwise, I would have lost my car to the thieves. Thank you." – Mr. Tay Teow Boon

Tracking chip helps nab three hijackers

By Lee Shi-lan

Shah Alam: Three men thought they were home and dry after transferring a stolen consignment of cigarettes from a hijacked vehicle to their escape van.
            But it turned out to be a futile move because a tracking chip had been embedded in one of the cigarette cartons as a precautionary measure. The hijacked vehicle also had a Global Positioning System installed.
            In the 12.25pm incident on Thursday, a van driver and his assistant had stopped in front of a wholesale shop in Jalan Reko, Kajang, to deliver cigarettes.
As they were unloading the consignment, four men in a Toyota Estima pulled up next to them. Three of them alighted and overpowered the van driver and his assistant. The fourth man grabbed the van keys and drove off. The other three then got into their own vehicle and sped off.
            The company (CAPTOR) managed to locate the hijacked van at 2pm, and a police team was dispatched to the area.
Unknown to the suspects, the company had placed a small tracking device inside one of the cigarette cartons.
Using the GPS system, the company kept the police informed on the movements of the stolen cigarettes.
About RM80,000 worth of cigarettes was recovered from the Toyota Estima, which is believed to be stolen.

Subscribing For 5 Years Well Worth It

Sahimi Bin Sani installed CAPTOR-RF into his Lexus RX-300 in 2004 because he felt that his family was worth the protection. Though his car aged and friends told him that no one would steal his car, he faithfully renewed his CAPTOR services every year.

Feb 2009, his wife was hijacked while driving the Lexus RX-300. CAPTOR recovered his car the next day.

" Now I am happy I chose to renew my annual subscription fees. It was well worth it."
