Where has your gold weally bin?

Steveqld · January 02, 2014, 07:28:01 PM

There has been mention in the news about 3 or 4 other gold/silver bullion thefts around Brisbane in the last few months and the possibility of a connection. If they had his name then it wouldn't be difficult to find out where he lived but that is in a dead end street so any strange vehicles would have been noticeable.

Also was it just luck for them that he happened to be out on New Years Eve or, again, did someone have inside knowledge. Appears the only room they ransacked was the bedroom where he happened to keep the safe.

Don't like his chances of recovering them but sometimes luck falls on the good guys side.

Det. Insp. Robbie is certain about that

New years eve is a thieves paradise and they take full advantage of empty houses, NOT at my place tho I don't DO the new years eve thing any more and am in bed by 8.30-9.00.

See this article and read the key points.

1. "An online forum for bullion collectors could be linked to a Brisbane burglary that's robbed an Afghanistan veteran of his life-savings"

2. "I've been really looking into putting that away in safe deposit boxes which was only going to happen in two weeks' time when we move. Unfortunately it was just bad timing."

Answer.

1. Be careful what you say or do here

2. Make sure your stuff is safe and don't put off making it that way.

3. Always use a PO Box.
4. Buy and use timers to turn on lights and appliances even when you're not home.

If anyone ever found my house " I live 20ks out of town and a couple of ks from the dirt road" They would have to get past this beast to get my stuff

That would make it easy for the cops to catch them.. just look for crims with mangled, chewed-up toes!
