What you are "just saying" is a misunderstanding of the process. Import and export are two completely different things. Items shipped out of the US, when containerized, and not always inspected. However, every imported vehicle has to be accounted for. Most of the time, it's impossible to import a non-US vehicle unless it's at least 25 years old. In this case, it's not even about exporting cars, as any car can be exported. It's about cargo that happens to be stolen merchandise.
We had a RR stolen in NJ. It was located in Port of Baltimore in a shipping container. This happened in Dec of 2021. The authorities sized it in December of 2021. As of Feb of 2022, we still had not received the vehicle back. Authorities stated since it was "exported" we had to pay to reimport it. In March we took an insurance settlement.

There is a way to stop this. And as far as shipping these cars to any part of the world, what they need to do is find the people who are shipping the vehicles, lock them up for sometime and then send them back to the country they came from.
They are rarely able to tie the actual individuals to these kinds of crimes because of the use of shell corporations and the inconsistent paper trails of false identities and signatures. It takes years to sift through some of these cases; many of the perpetrators will likely be long gone or already locked up for something else by the time they have the evidence to go to trial. It's a broken system.
Yeah, that'll teach them! HAHAHA Three hots and a cot plus if they need to see a doctor, or dentist, or want to get an education, they'll get it. Nope, you get caught, you lose a hand, caught a second time, and you get a permanent nap.
Our Nigerian friends being entrepreneurs. Their cybercrime and car theft network is impressive and amazing. They are licensed car dealers and have members working at ports around the country to ship the cars back home. Glad to see American law enforcement finally having some impact.
They don't even need security. Each car can be deactivated - meaning they simply will not start no matter what. Why those cars were not put in that mode overnight is anyone's guess. Criminal motive by the dealer would be at the forefront.
After you are murdered the local police may figure it out before nothing will be done as we don’t have enough evidence thanks for your tax money cooperation
I was part of a management team in the early 1970's Transcontinental trucking co. Just an incredible amount of missing freight, especially off the West Coast Ports. No containers then. Collusion between the Dock Workers and truck Co. workers. It was looked at like a Port tax. To do their business required 'paying' the dock workers their share.

There is always someone in the chain that can be bought. Those Bethesda thieves knew exactly where the keys were stashed. A shipping container doesn’t magically appear to be loaded with cars.

Nothing enters or leaves this country that reams of paperwork isn’t created and filed. You need customs agents for every container. Many high levels bureaucrats involved in this.
Good luck with that one, border patrol is low priority at the ports, but keeping people seeking asylum out of the country now that's going to be top of the list.
It's a manpower issue. 100 people to check 8,000 items a day. That's 800 items per person, its impossible to verify 100 items per hour with your 8 hr shift. Especially when it's all packed in shipping containers.
@@HunkMine 80 to 85% of containers are legitimate business, reputable paperwork and shippers. The other 15 to 20% of container traffic is suspect. Stolen cars, drugs, etc. Ever notice, regardless of all additional money spent, new equipment purchased, new search parameters, it all comes back to “just not enough people.”

There is an ID, it says Something like sun corporation. Customs does not verify every name on the manifest. To make sure they are a light business. Even if they did, what’s to stop them from saying Microsoft is shipping the container? You think Microsoft should be shut down and everyone arrested for car theft? Prove in court that anyone in that company knew their name was being used and that they knew there were stolen vehicles in the container?
The most outrageous thing is that these stolen cars are sold in Africa, especially Nigeria, far higher than what they are bought in the USA and Canada.
All of those workers are guilty. Start arresting them for grand theft and make them disclose who or whom is behind this operation. They're all getting money and probably not declaring any of it as income. The port authorities and IRS should be putting pressure on this organized theft ring.
What workers are you talking about? The dealership The port/dock workers? Who? The dock workers send them to customs before they are loaded up and customs sends them through the x-ray machine. They are the ones catching them. Other than that, they don’t know who stole them let alone who shipped them. The name in the Bill of Laden isn’t their real name or company. So who are the cops going to round up and pressure?
@@leroyusa935 - the customs people found them and are returning them. Not every vehicle shipped out of the country is a stolen vehicle. Ford motors USA ships cars out to individual people. So, who’s to say the vehicle in the shipping container is stolen? They can’t open the seal on the container without probable cause. The customs agent even said so. They just need that excuse. But if the bad guys put down what is really in there, they can’t open them. However, if they put down what’s really in them the person shipping has to pay a tariff goods leaving and coming into the country get taxed, that tax depends on what it is. Something expensive gets a higher tax than something cheaper. Which is why the agent said they look and the manifest and see that the person put down a car but when they looked it was a pickup. That means they lied because a pickup is a higher tax. But if they didn’t lie they would have no cause to open the container.
@@auntiem873 1) the person who filled put the shipping paper and paid for the freight. 2) the receiving shipper that put stolen car in the container and filled out the declaration of goods.
@@abaymine3380 - you really need to know the law. This is not individuals or private citizens looking it is the government. The law is clear, they need probable cause to pop the seal. Are their dirty agents? Sure, the agency does try to catch them and prosecute them. Most are honest agents. As such, they will want the probable cause.
I just watched an episode about car smuggling on National Geographic's show "Underworld, Inc". It was an incredible documentary that took the viewer through the entire channel of stolen cars, from thieves to buyers in Africa. They interviewed this one guy who had a legit autobody shop that purchased a device to get around security systems for almost any make of car. Not only did he use the device, he rented it out to other thieves at a weekly rate.
I saw that episode. Amazing how a buyer in Ghana could place an order for a particular model of car, have it stolen as far away as LA, and then have it delivered. Most telling detail in this news article: "No one has yet been arrested. I'm shocked."
Bet you the dealers are pissed they were found... They either were in on it, wont get their full insurance claim, have to lie about it being stolen or now have to take a huge lose selling it..
Years ago there was a russian roro ship that came into Tacoma every couple months, The Captain Mann. One day the terminal security noticed that the crew would walk out of the terminal and return a couple hours later in a car. When they checked the ship, there were almost 100 stolen cars onboard. The entire crew, from the captain down, was arrested. Thats how new cars got to Vladivostok.
I'm a retired truck driver I hauled containers in and out of the port of Baltimore. Customs inspected every container I brought into the port containing cars for inspection. The biggest problem I saw was most of these cars were loaded in a way to make it difficult to check the VIN number. I've seen people loading overseas containers with household goods on South Newkirk Street right next to the port. Some of these containers had cars loaded on them and they would completely load household goods on them like they were trying to hide the vehicles.
This really should be very easy for them to stop in its tracks, to ship a car out of the country you have to have a MSO short for manufacturer's certificate of origin. If a car is found in a container and the freight forwarder doesn't have a certified copy of the MSO he should immediately lose his license and ability to ship.
It's cat and mouse because every lock has to have a key, whether it is physical or digital. If you lose your key, someone has to be able to program a new one for you, right? That means there has to be a tool to make the keys. Not hard for these thieves to get access to the tools.
At the same time, if I wanted to transport a car that was insured registered and titled to me to London or Sydney, these same agents would spot something wrong with my valid paperwork, like say, the weight of the vehicle or how many cylinders and flag it, then Id have to pay some fee and wait 2 weeks hoping someone would call me back about the situation. meanwhile, Gigatons of the illegal stuff is going through. Like a bad oyster through the sphincter.
I ordered Mizuno Football boots from England to the USA a while back(now they’re sold here), the boots were intercepted and they wanted me to pay more than what I had paid for the boots lol they kept them, never sent them back to the shipper. I should have shipped them inside a stole car!
Especially Benz, they can do that globally using satellite. We just had a G Wagon recovered in less than an hour that was deactivated while the black pieces of shit that stole it were in the middle of driving it on I-10 outside of LA. They literally had nowhere to go. It was actually hilarious.
In less than 15 minutes,my question is why weren’t the police on scene in less than 15 minutes,there’s got to be a very sophisticated security system at that dealership going off immediately when the place was broken into
And why oh why wouldn't ANYBODY put those apple trackers on such expensive vehicles...hell I would think trackers would be standard equipment of such vehicles..as in being the only way any insurance company would even insure them to start with. Corruption to the gills.
The police station is a mile from that dealership There’s is a few light s but cops can turn their flashing lights to go thru them get there in 3 min worst case and police probably driving near that dealership any ways
This looks like insurance fraud to me. The dealer probably sold the cars to thieves for just a few thousand dollars each and insured that they could get in and out with no problems. Then he turns it into insurance and voila', he makes a lot of money, probably gets the cars off his floor plan and very little work on his part. Did you see his "Thank You" at the end of the segment. He didn't really look all that happy.
@@jeretso Exactly!! A crooked dealer employee would failitate the theft and get some profit over the sale of the vehicles. As high end luxury car dealers usually have insurance, they'll get a compensation for their loss, beside a premium increase maybe. So, it's a win situation for the dealer on many levels.
I buy all my parts from that dealer, really nice people such a shame some good for nothing parasites of society are out here stealing from hard working people.
Why did I think the port people put the cars into the containers? How do thieves put cars in the containers and then fill out false paperwork? Wouldn’t the port require ID? So confusing!
Typically, the containers are loaded at warehouses away from the port. Then a truck will pick them up to drop off at the port they’ll be departing from.
The insurance money goes to the manufacturer. The dealer pays interest on the wholesale price of the car until it is sold. When sold, the manufacturer gets paid and anything above that price is the dealers to keep.
This reminds me of when, late actor, Kenneth Michael Williams did a TV series called "Black Market" where he went to the streets & spoke to people involved in this enterprise at all levels. From the jackers, who were sometimes early teens, all the way to the shipyards & on to Africa. There were hundreds of nice vehicles from America, with Obama stickers on them, parked in fields in Zimbabwe awaiting there new "owners" at the end of the process. lol
This is quite Ironic, they should ship the criminal to that destination instead of those luxury cars, I have a great feeling that would fit perfectly there rather than the cars the are illegally importing.
As stupid as thieves are, you can do something called checking the steering wheel for fingerprints. Newer fingerprints are very fresh on a steering wheel & can provide clues as to who the suspects are.
....and a 99¢ pair of jersey gloves from the gas station foiled your whole plan. This is organized crime. They PROBABLY have small details, like not leaving incriminating fu*king evidence everywhere, covered.
People forget one big detail here Corruption is surely rampant at ports Look at how they put 3 cars in a container without fear They know how the system works...and they don't fear it
Cops and Border Agents have to be involved. This is ridiculously common, but they never seem to be able to catch the thieves (probably fingerprints all over those cars). Wonder why...
This is one of what some call a "victimless crime" since nobody was hurt physically but its still a crime and the perps will NEVER be caught. Low risk, high reward. Always wondered why I saw so many fancy cars in impoverished areas of Africa and other countries.
They deserve it. How much is a security guard? 10$/hr? How long is the night? 8 hours? They could spend $80 to protect the dealership, but they choose not to. Why? Because they're in on it.
Next time you're driving on the Bay Bridge, look over at the driver next to you, that person might be crazy maniac and about to do something dangerous. I had that experience going east on the Bay Bridge off ramp in Oakland, some crazy person in a truck with the rear window broken out got in front of me, braked check me swerved and wouldn't let me go around him, The best solution is to keep driving and ignore them, eventually either you or the crazy person will reach your destination.
This was such a random commmet on this video I’m from sf and the bay bridge connects the rich and poor island together all the poor people wake up early to cross the bridge road rage and get to the master or kings side of the island.
You need to tighten up your security measures. It is too easy to steal it out of your front door. Get an electric 7000v fence. They are using them now everywhere. No one will mess with that.
I had a friend working for the Port of Balto back in the early 80's and they were unloading a ship and the dogs went crazy. They found a container of cars painted like British police cars stuffed full of drugs hoping they would just float past security because they looked real.
As of today the dealer gets his money faster back from insurance before he sells that square crap for 200k. I can tell you he was not happy when he saw his car back at the dealership.
That's a base model G wagon for $200k. Nothing fancy on it. They will sell it for around $195k because it has a few miles on it & it was stolen. They will get it too.
And most, if not all of the scumbags have a similar characteristic that the media doesn't want to focus on. So, why isn't the shipper of record in jail?
Lol I've been buying and selling cars in Nigeria and I always run a stolen report. Eight in the past year so far have come from America and Canada reported stolen. Once the cars reach here they can be easily registered and driven and no looking over your back. Have you be careful what you buy for sure.
That's laughable. The only way this happening is because of corrupt US government officials. From police to customs and port workers. As the reporter mentioned, it's part of a bigger smuggling ring. A lot of people in high places get paid to look the other way. It's the same with the so-called war on drugs. We tend to blame the Mexican and Colombian cartels, meanwhile they are government officials here in the US that facilitate the trade.
You would think there's some kind of process if anyone is trying to ship a motor vehicle overseas that they have to show paperwork or a title or look up if the vehicles stolen. How these criminals are getting past this Is just mind-boggling.

There is a way to stop this. And as far as shipping these cars to any part of the world, what they need to do is find the people who are shipping the vehicles, lock them up for sometime and then send them back to the country they came from.
They are rarely able to tie the actual individuals to these kinds of crimes because of the use of shell corporations and the inconsistent paper trails of false identities and signatures. It takes years to sift through some of these cases; many of the perpetrators will likely be long gone or already locked up for something else by the time they have the evidence to go to trial. It's a broken system.
That part............
The thieves should be sent back in different containers...!!!
Yeah, that'll teach them! HAHAHA Three hots and a cot plus if they need to see a doctor, or dentist, or want to get an education, they'll get it. Nope, you get caught, you lose a hand, caught a second time, and you get a permanent nap.

such a stupid financial decision owning a car in Baltimore 😂😂
Baltimore sure has changed since Edgar Allan Poe lived there.
I don't know why a Mercedes dealer in Bethesda with millions in inventory wouldn't have security monitoring service. Pennywise, pound foolish.
They don't even need security. Each car can be deactivated - meaning they simply will not start no matter what. Why those cars were not put in that mode overnight is anyone's guess. Criminal motive by the dealer would be at the forefront.

@@giacomu1 Absolutely!

I was part of a management team in the early 1970's Transcontinental trucking co. Just an incredible amount of missing freight, especially off the West Coast Ports. No containers then. Collusion between the Dock Workers and truck Co. workers. It was looked at like a Port tax. To do their business required 'paying' the dock workers their share.

Nothing enters or leaves this country that reams of paperwork isn’t created and filed. You need customs agents for every container. Many high levels bureaucrats involved in this.
Good luck with that one, border patrol is low priority at the ports, but keeping people seeking asylum out of the country now that's going to be top of the list.
Exactly, follow the money trail.
It's a manpower issue. 100 people to check 8,000 items a day. That's 800 items per person, its impossible to verify 100 items per hour with your 8 hr shift. Especially when it's all packed in shipping containers.
@@HunkMine 80 to 85% of containers are legitimate business, reputable paperwork and shippers. The other 15 to 20% of container traffic is suspect. Stolen cars, drugs, etc. Ever notice, regardless of all additional money spent, new equipment purchased, new search parameters, it all comes back to “just not enough people.”
All you have to do is check where the container is going to and if it’s going to certain areas where a car theft is prevalent, those are the containers you check and if you don’t, then you’re not doing your job
Not with only 100 agents
Maybe they go to other countries first and get transferred to another boat and shipped again.
What if the agents are being bribed too? They could be in it too

The most outrageous thing is that these stolen cars are sold in Africa, especially Nigeria, far higher than what they are bought in the USA and Canada.
I worked for a car rental company in NJ and they found out employees were linked to their stolen vehicles. So Mercedes should check their employees.
All of those workers are guilty. Start arresting them for grand theft and make them disclose who or whom is behind this operation. They're all getting money and probably not declaring any of it as income. The port authorities and IRS should be putting pressure on this organized theft ring.
What workers are you talking about?
The dealership
The port/dock workers?
Who?
The dock workers send them to customs before they are loaded up and customs sends them through the x-ray machine. They are the ones catching them.
Other than that, they don’t know who stole them let alone who shipped them.
The name in the Bill of Laden isn’t their real name or company.
So who are the cops going to round up and pressure?
@@auntiem873 All of them. They know these are stolen vehicles.
@@leroyusa935 - the customs people found them and are returning them.
Not every vehicle shipped out of the country is a stolen vehicle.
Ford motors USA ships cars out to individual people.
So, who’s to say the vehicle in the shipping container is stolen?
They can’t open the seal on the container without probable cause.
The customs agent even said so.
They just need that excuse.
But if the bad guys put down what is really in there, they can’t open them.
However, if they put down what’s really in them the person shipping has to pay a tariff goods leaving and coming into the country get taxed, that tax depends on what it is.
Something expensive gets a higher tax than something cheaper.
Which is why the agent said they look and the manifest and see that the person put down a car but when they looked it was a pickup. That means they lied because a pickup is a higher tax.
But if they didn’t lie they would have no cause to open the container.
@@auntiem873
1) the person who filled put the shipping paper and paid for the freight.
2) the receiving shipper that put stolen car in the container and filled out the declaration of goods.
@@abaymine3380 - you really need to know the law.
This is not individuals or private citizens looking it is the government.
The law is clear, they need probable cause to pop the seal.
Are their dirty agents? Sure, the agency does try to catch them and prosecute them.
Most are honest agents.
As such, they will want the probable cause.
I just watched an episode about car smuggling on National Geographic's show "Underworld, Inc". It was an incredible documentary that took the viewer through the entire channel of stolen cars, from thieves to buyers in Africa. They interviewed this one guy who had a legit autobody shop that purchased a device to get around security systems for almost any make of car. Not only did he use the device, he rented it out to other thieves at a weekly rate.
I saw that episode. Amazing how a buyer in Ghana could place an order for a particular model of car, have it stolen as far away as LA, and then have it delivered. Most telling detail in this news article: "No one has yet been arrested. I'm shocked."
That's dirty, wow! Swindlers and Thieves, lol and smh.
Episode?
Where can I see this ?
@@cesarsanchez7768 Disney Plus
Bet you the dealers are pissed they were found... They either were in on it, wont get their full insurance claim, have to lie about it being stolen or now have to take a huge lose selling it..

The whole dealership universe is a strange and awful place.
Only the worst become King
$200,000…no car is worth that kind of $$$.
Part of his problem is law enforcement and Courts for not punishing people the way they used to be

That is giving the dealership the headache of deaing with a chopped up vehicle. Wouldve been better never seeing that vehicle again.
Years ago there was a russian roro ship that came into Tacoma every couple months, The Captain Mann. One day the terminal security noticed that the crew would walk out of the terminal and return a couple hours later in a car. When they checked the ship, there were almost 100 stolen cars onboard. The entire crew, from the captain down, was arrested. Thats how new cars got to Vladivostok.
If your car is worth a lot you need a real time gps tracking device. Hidden and with it's own power source.

@@gravityent9943 Insurance only covers actual loss. And insurance goes up. Nobody wants theft.
I'm a retired truck driver I hauled containers in and out of the port of Baltimore. Customs inspected every container I brought into the port containing cars for inspection. The biggest problem I saw was most of these cars were loaded in a way to make it difficult to check the VIN number. I've seen people loading overseas containers with household goods on South Newkirk Street right next to the port. Some of these containers had cars loaded on them and they would completely load household goods on them like they were trying to hide the vehicles.
You can put anything you want in a container..its not a problem! cars, TVs laptops anything
Stories like this are why I love my 24-year-old SUV.
A simple electronic tracking device on each car would greatly reduce this problem.
This really should be very easy for them to stop in its tracks, to ship a car out of the country you have to have a MSO short for manufacturer's certificate of origin. If a car is found in a container and the freight forwarder doesn't have a certified copy of the MSO he should immediately lose his license and ability to ship.
Sure...but then they change their name, and are back in business in 2 shakes of a lamb's tail.
Ok…. Nerd 😂
These cars are soo expensive and how come it’s so easy to steal?? What happened to all the so called technology that supposedly justifies the price??
Are you dumb? They broke into the dealer and stole the keys. These cars are impossible to steal unless you have the key which the dealer had.
You have to pay a monthly subscription fee to use the technology that comes with the car you bought
Bc there’s technology to counter technology.
@@waynesbutler7834I think Chrisfix did something like install a fuel pump relay "kill switch" in the interior of the car. You can use it every day.
It's cat and mouse because every lock has to have a key, whether it is physical or digital. If you lose your key, someone has to be able to program a new one for you, right? That means there has to be a tool to make the keys. Not hard for these thieves to get access to the tools.
When it doesn't pay to hire the usual suspects
There’s no tracking Devices on a 200k car…. Lmao
At the same time, if I wanted to transport a car that was insured registered and titled to me to London or Sydney, these same agents would spot something wrong with my valid paperwork, like say, the weight of the vehicle or how many cylinders and flag it, then Id have to pay some fee and wait 2 weeks hoping someone would call me back about the situation. meanwhile, Gigatons of the illegal stuff is going through. Like a bad oyster through the sphincter.
I ordered Mizuno Football boots from England to the USA a while back(now they’re sold here), the boots were intercepted and they wanted me to pay more than what I had paid for the boots lol they kept them, never sent them back to the shipper. I should have shipped them inside a stole car!
It can’t be that hard to disable them while they sit at the showroom and track them once stolen. SMH
exactly, some other hidden parties must be involved and benefitted in someway and keep this theft happening
Especially Benz, they can do that globally using satellite. We just had a G Wagon recovered in less than an hour that was deactivated while the black pieces of shit that stole it were in the middle of driving it on I-10 outside of LA. They literally had nowhere to go. It was actually hilarious.

Police should be in Bethesda in a few minutes its a very expensive area. It was probably an inside job with crooks scouting the area for lack of cops.
And why oh why wouldn't ANYBODY put those apple trackers on such expensive vehicles...hell I would think trackers would be standard equipment of such vehicles..as in being the only way any insurance company would even insure them to start with. Corruption to the gills.
The police station is a mile from that dealership There’s is a few light s but cops can turn their flashing lights to go thru them get there in 3 min worst case and police probably driving near that dealership any ways
This looks like insurance fraud to me. The dealer probably sold the cars to thieves for just a few thousand dollars each and insured that they could get in and out with no problems. Then he turns it into insurance and voila', he makes a lot of money, probably gets the cars off his floor plan and very little work on his part. Did you see his "Thank You" at the end of the segment. He didn't really look all that happy.
@@jeretso Exactly!!
A crooked dealer employee would failitate the theft and get some profit over the sale of the vehicles. As high end luxury car dealers usually have insurance, they'll get a compensation for their loss, beside a premium increase maybe. So, it's a win situation for the dealer on many levels.
You mean to tell me none of them have tracking devices
If using a forklift is the only way to move a stolen car without keys, then how do thieves end up driving them?
Most cars have keyless entry nowadays. You can use an electronic device to fake the keys to get it running and drive it to where they load them up.
They don't drive them, they use a tow truck. Look on TH-cam for repo and illegal parking tows, takes them less than a minute.

They might be working together. Who knows.
Typically, the containers are loaded at warehouses away from the port. Then a truck will pick them up to drop off at the port they’ll be departing from.

@@berardoferrari maybe push it in
@@yoochoob true, but they showed cars on forklifts

The insurance money goes to the manufacturer. The dealer pays interest on the wholesale price of the car until it is sold. When sold, the manufacturer gets paid and anything above that price is the dealers to keep.
No one arrested nor will anyone be arrested.
Let's defend the police...we don't need any of them...sure~
This reminds me of when, late actor, Kenneth Michael Williams did a TV series called "Black Market" where he went to the streets & spoke to people involved in this enterprise at all levels.

There were hundreds of nice vehicles from America, with Obama stickers on them, parked in fields in Zimbabwe awaiting there new "owners" at the end of the process. lol

As stupid as thieves are, you can do something called checking the steering wheel for fingerprints. Newer fingerprints are very fresh on a steering wheel & can provide clues as to who the suspects are.

you forgot a few more details... crooks are usually stupid... and they can't check every container. Bottom line is a few will always get through.
Cops and Border Agents have to be involved. This is ridiculously common, but they never seem to be able to catch the thieves (probably fingerprints all over those cars). Wonder why...
Get your facts straight. Cops aren’t involved… I can assure you . Cops can’t do anything anymore thanks to the wonderful democrats of this country .
as do the politicians, who are either sleeping with or being bribed by the same triads who own the ships.
This is one of what some call a "victimless crime" since nobody was hurt physically but its still a crime and the perps will NEVER be caught. Low risk, high reward. Always wondered why I saw so many fancy cars in impoverished areas of Africa and other countries.
Victimless crime is like smoking pot in your bedroom. Stealing has a victim. There is no requirement of violence to meet.
They deserve it. How much is a security guard? 10$/hr? How long is the night? 8 hours? They could spend $80 to protect the dealership, but they choose not to. Why? Because they're in on it.

Every person moving stolen vehicles needs to be charged with the same crime as the person they’re working for.

The dealers can either keep the insurance money and forfeit the vehicles to the insurance company, or vice versa.
The port agents are in on it totally. I understand it’s hard to search every container but too much is getting through 😢

Well, the dealership can't sell that one for $200k. That's not new anymore!
As of today the dealer gets his money faster back from insurance before he sells that square crap for 200k. I can tell you he was not happy when he saw his car back at the dealership.
That's a base model G wagon for $200k. Nothing fancy on it. They will sell it for around $195k because it has a few miles on it & it was stolen. They will get it too.
And most, if not all of the scumbags have a similar characteristic that the media doesn't want to focus on.

Umm by Americans saying that to Africa it's like the pot calling the kettle black. 🤷 Our government is more corrupt than theirs at this point.
That's laughable. The only way this happening is because of corrupt US government officials. From police to customs and port workers. As the reporter mentioned, it's part of a bigger smuggling ring. A lot of people in high places get paid to look the other way.
It's the same with the so-called war on drugs. We tend to blame the Mexican and Colombian cartels, meanwhile they are government officials here in the US that facilitate the trade.
Hahaha clueless 🤣 they are not going to Africa...the first suspect is the dealership..it's called insurance fraud.
