Clever trick to protect your suitcase from thieves: Many tourists misuse their tracker
Passengers traveling with suitcases and bags are often advised to attach tracking devices to their luggage. Such gadgets are effective when it comes to lost items during transportation, but thieves usually turn off the trackers or discard them when intercepting other people's suitcases.
To avoid troubles, passengers are advised to hide the AirTag or Tile inside the bag, disguising it. In this case, criminals may not notice the tracking device, and the police will have a chance to find them, as reported by the Seattle Times.
Before hiding the tracker, make sure it is charged. Travelers are not advised to use special compartments on suitcases, as every thief will check there first.
Instead, you should hide the AirTag or Tile inside, not between items, but under the lining.
Coffey, a security expert, hides his tracker by unzipping the inner lining and gluing it under a piece of fabric.
The small device will continue to work but will not be as visible to thieves.
