‘My Car Got Airtagged:' Woman Goes to Police After Being Warned Her Car Is Being Tracked. What Should You Do if This Happens?

A woman on TikTok claims her car was AirTagged—and says that neither the police nor staff at the location where it happened were very helpful. Savannah Phillips (@thatsavchick) said she was at a golf course when she discovered the AirTag, though she hasn't shared exactly how she was alerted to it. As of this writing, her initial video about the incident has gathered over 2.6 million views. She has not yet posted a follow-up confirming whether the device was ever located. Police Couldn't Find the AirTag. The Golf Course Didn't Help Either In her video, Phillips included footage of two officers helping her search around her car and trunk for the device, but to no avail. The next day, she said in an update video that she took the car to a body shop—but was told there were too many 'nooks and crannies' and 'exposed metal' areas for a thorough scan. She also criticized the golf course where it all happened, saying the staff showed little interest and weren't even familiar with what an AirTag was. 'They could not have been less helpful or less interested,' Phillips said. For now, she's keeping her car away from her home, citing safety concerns. 'As for now, my car is not at my house,' she said in her most recent update on July 7. She promised to keep followers posted, but hasn't shared any new details since. What Do I Do if This Happens to Me? If you find an AirTag on or inside your car and you didn't place it there, don't ignore it . Apple and safety experts recommend disabling the device immediately and contacting law enforcement, especially if you feel unsafe or suspect someone is tracking you without your consent. The AirTag might beep if it's been separated from its owner for a while, but you can also use your iPhone or any NFC-enabled phone to scan it. Hold your phone near the white side of the tag, and a notification should pop up with instructions on how to disable it. Search your vehicle carefully—under seats, in compartments, around the trunk, and anywhere else the device might be hidden. If you find the AirTag, press down on the back and twist it counter-clockwise to remove the battery and stop it from transmitting. If your phone detected the tag, follow any on-screen instructions to disable it. Law enforcement may ask for the AirTag, its serial number, or any owner information you were shown, so take screenshots before handing it over. Do not return the device to whoever placed it there, and do not try to confront them, as that could put you at risk. If you use an iPhone, make sure Item Safety Alerts are turned on. This feature will notify you if an unknown AirTag is moving with you over time. And if you're ever in doubt, it's best to be cautious and involve the authorities. How Do I Know If I'm Being Tracked? If you're an iPhone user, your phone will automatically alert you if it detects an unknown AirTag moving with you—either because it's been separated from its owner or because someone might be using it to track you. If that happens, open the Find My app and follow the steps to locate the device. Some newer iPhones even offer precision finding, which can help you pinpoint exactly where the tag is hidden. If you have an Android phone, it's a bit less automatic. One option is to download the 'Tracker Detect' app from the Google Play Store and use it to scan for nearby AirTags. Viewers Offer Advice Phillips isn't the only one who says her car has been tagged with an AirTag. In the comments section of her video, others shared their own unsettling experiences. 'This happened to me, and the cops in my town told me [that] unless I find it or a crime is committed, they can't do anything,' one user wrote. 'Glad your town is better.' 'Take it to the mechanic! I had this happen to me, and they didn't even charge me,' another said. 'Deputy here. A girl came in with this exact concern about two years ago,' a third commenter added. 'We found out it was in her spare tire. We put it on my squad car.' Some also offered advice for what to do if you find yourself in a similar situation. 'Turn your location on your iPhone in your car,' one said. 'When the notification comes up, your phone will allow you to have the AirTag make a noise and also give you the last four digits of the phone number for the account.' Others suggested checking places like the gas cap or exhaust pipe. 'This happened to me, and they duct taped it to my exhaust pipe,' one commenter shared. Then there were those simply shocked. 'That's so scary,' one user wrote. 'The act of placing an AirTag on someone's property should be charged with aggravated stalking with intent to harm,' another said. 'There is no excuse someone needs to keep tabs on you like this.' Motor1 has reached out to Phillips via a direct message on TikTok. We'll update this article if we hear back.

Chicago Public Schools teacher Jaron Woodsley charged with sharing child pornography over Telegram app

A Chicago Public Schools teacher who also is on the staff of the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra has been charged with sending and receiving child pornography over a messaging app. Jaron Woodsley, 27, has been charged with receipt and distribution of child pornography. In a criminal complaint filed in federal court in Chicago, the FBI accused Woodsley of sending at least 13 videos containing child pornography over the Telegram messaging app to another man in Colorado in September. That man allegedly sent back six videos of child pornography to Woodsley. The app encrypts users' data so that it can only be accessed on their mobile devices, "making it an ideal platform for individuals engaged in the receipt, and distribution of child pornography," FBI Special Agent Meghan Crooks wrote in the complaint. One of the videos Woodsley allegedly received over Telegram was of the Colorado man sexually abusing a 3-year-old, according to the charges. "Can't wait to f*** him," the Colorado man allegedly wrote in a message to Woodsley. "I'll definitely be down to join you," Woodsley allegedly wrote back. As part of an FBI investigation in Colorado, the other man's phone was later seized and he was arrested on child pornography charges. Investigators later traced the messages back to Woodsley. Woodsley was scheduled to make his first court appearance Friday afternoon, but information on that hearing was not immediately available. He faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted. According to the Chicago Public Schools' website, Woodsley is a teacher at Robert Fulton Elementary school in the Back of the Yards neighborhood. A CPS spokesperson said Woodsley was removed from his teaching position as the district's inspector general investigates, after they were notified of his arrest on Friday. "Student safety is one of Chicago Public Schools' highest priorities," a CPS spokesperson said. "CPS will not hesitate to terminate an employee under established District policies and procedures." He's also on the staff of the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra, according to the FBI. The Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra said Woodsley was immediately suspended after they learned of the charges. "This alleged behavior is abhorrent and vile and completely inconsistent with both CYSO policies and the law," CYSO executive director Jennie Oh Brown said in a statement. "The safety of our students is our highest priority, and we are dedicated to maintaining a safe and nurturing environment for their learning and development. CYSO staff and community are deeply disheartened by this situation, and we will cooperate fully with appropriate authorities."
