Often times we get tunnel vision and lose sight of the big picture and what we\u2019re really trying to accomplish.\u201d \u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/quotefancy.com\/robert-cheeke-quotes\"><em>Robert Cheeke<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When faced with the theft of one of your pieces of equipment, it\u2019s understandable to have the knee-jerk reaction to do whatever you have to in order to get the item back in your possession.\u00a0 While I personally celebrate the dedication shown to take all necessary steps to work towards a recovery, it\u2019s also important to keep in mind that it\u2019s not always the BEST plan of action if we truly want to put a dent in Bad Guys paying for their crimes and going to jail.\u00a0 The world we live in today presents us with a seemingly endless amount of theft, and just as many hurdles to criminals facing any consequences for their crimes.\u00a0 We must remember \u2013 as hard as it is \u2013 that it\u2019s a good bet that this isn\u2019t Mr. Do-No-Good\u2019s first rodeo and that if we want to increase the chances of him doing any time, we need to consider taking a step back and focusing on the forest rather than our singular \u201ctree\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>There has been a recent rash of thefts by fraudsters that is the perfect example of the need to look at the bigger picture. In this specific fraud scenario that I\u2019m referring to, we are dealing with an individual (or individuals) who are posting equipment for sale on either OfferUP or Facebook Marketplace.\u00a0\u00a0 Once they have a seller interested in purchasing the item, they initiate an online credit application and rent equipment with the intention of turning around and immediately selling it.\u00a0 All of the information they are using for the credit application and payment(s) has been fraudulently obtained- Driver\u2019s license, credit cards, company name, etc.\u00a0 To further complicate things, they rarely have the equipment in their possession for more than a few hours so by the time you notice it\u2019s not where it\u2019s supposed to be, there\u2019s a good chance it\u2019s with it\u2019s new \u201crightful owner\u201d, complete with a Bill of Sale, proving they paid for it.\u00a0 In this case, the crooks are not just hitting a few random stores in SoCal. It has been brought to our attention that the information being used to complete the credit app, has also been used in Texas.\u00a0 Heaven only knows the true extent of this particular crew\u2019s mischief, further illustrating the need to shift into \u201cseeing the forest\u201d mode and consider the bigger picture! The details of each theft still hold importance but being able to take a step back and soak in the breadth of what\u2019s going on helps with appreciating the scale and discovering the most effective way of making an impact.\u00a0 These thefts by fraud can be incredibly convoluted and complex. When you add to the equation that there are a healthy number of patrol officers who simply aren\u2019t trained in the intricacies of rental theft (especially construction equipment!) that would be the ones arriving on scene for assistance, we\u2019ve got the makings of a communication standoff.<\/p>\n<p>Remembering to alter your perception and look at the forest through the trees, better encourages not only impactful engagement from law enforcement, but also the potential for a more promising and productive outcome.\u00a0 We might have what appears to be an entire pile of slam-dunk information, but when we stop to consider what information is ACTUALLY helpful in an investigation, a warrant, arrest, or even potential prosecution situation, it becomes painfully evident that we\u2019re talking about two very different things.\u00a0 We might feel that we \u201cKNOW\u201d exactly what\u2019s going on and who the culprit is but remember that regardless of what you \u201cknow\u201d, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution and, in this case, you, the victim.\u00a0 Think about the \u201cguy in a hoodie driving a white truck\u201d that was caught on camera during a theft vs the reality that the \u201cguy\u201d could be literally anyone and without an actual license plate, the white truck captured, is useless too.\u00a0 While sharing the information is important during reporting the theft, don\u2019t be upset if you\u2019re told it doesn\u2019t hold as much value as you initially thought. This isn\u2019t laziness or lack of concern, it\u2019s reality. Assumptions are pure poison and it\u2019s vital that we look at the situation from all angles and always remember where the burden of proof lies.\u00a0 (As the liaison the law enforcement, this is just one small example of what CPP helps our members with!)<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s be clear: I don\u2019t encourage total complacency while hoping your equipment makes its way back to you without any intervention. I do, however, encourage you to take a step back and consider how your singular theft might fit into a larger picture \u2013 for anyone who might have a vested interest.\u00a0 That includes not just the rental store, but also your theft liaison (CPP), Investigator(s) that might be working up a suspect or case, a Judge being asked to sign off on a warrant, and any subsequent DA that would be tasked with prosecution down the line. When referring to a crime ring or professional criminal, it generally takes not just an exhaustive amount of patience but a hefty number of pieces fitting together to allow someone to see the complete picture and hopefully, put an end to continued issues \u2013 with any particular crew.\u00a0 As theft liaison, CPP helps gather information from anyone affected by these types of thefts and connects the different cases and Investigators \/ Detectives to help complete that overall picture and increase the likelihood of a positive outcome.<\/p>\n<p>The state of our world can be incredibly disheartening and even more frustrating. Adjusting our expectations to keep the bigger picture in mind not only helps with how we feel in the moment but also offers us the opportunity to help facilitate that change in outcomes and the difference we\u2019ve all been cheering for.<\/p>\n<p><em>*The Crime Prevention Program of Southern California (CPP) is a non-profit organization working with our members, law enforcement, the construction industry and area auto theft task forces to educate, empower and engage in a community fighting construction crime.
