"As SFGate reports, a San Jose resident called the San Jose Police Department at 2:45 am Thursday reporting that people were on their property, who left before officers arrived. The resident then found a camera attached to an external power bank in their bushes, which was aimed at their home, according to San Jose police, presumably to monitor when the home was unoccupied in order to commit burglaries."
"The suspects plant hidden surveillance devices, often posing as delivery service providers, to determine when homes are unoccupied before committing burglaries, the police department said, per KRON4. Per SFGate, the police department said in a press release it's received several complaints of suspicious devices hidden on local residents' properties, followed by the potential burglars ringing the doorbells while posing as delivery drivers or other workers."
A San Jose resident reported people on their property at 2:45 am and later found a camera attached to an external power bank in the bushes aimed at the home, apparently to monitor when it was unoccupied. Detectives found a second camera attached to a Wi‑Fi powered device near another home. Suspects plant hidden surveillance devices and subsequently pose as delivery drivers or other workers, sometimes ringing doorbells and leaving packages to confirm vacancy. Residents are urged to call police if a suspicious device is found and not to touch it. Anyone with information should email the burglary unit at [email protected].
