A Valley woman says an Apple AirTag that she still hasn't been able to locate was tracking her vehicle location without her knowing recently: abc15
The device is supposed to help people keep track of things like their keys and wallets, but this woman told ABC15 she got a notification on her phone that an AirTag was moving with her.
“So, immediately I called Apple to try and figure out, you know, if they were able to locate the AirTag and how to distinguish it or disable it,” said the woman. “They would be able to disable it if I physically have the tag.”“So, my friends and I tried to empty out the car, tried to play the sound [and] couldn’t do that,” said the woman.
“The fact that they have my location, and the tag is still there,” said the woman. “I wouldn’t feel safe going home.”She showed ABC15 through Find My iPhone a map that she said shows the tag tracking her location.Inside a local Apple store, ABC15 was told AirTags use the “find my” network on iPhones to send out a Bluetooth signal.
Scottsdale police confirmed they got several calls from the woman, and they encourage anyone in these situations to reach out.
