LINCOLNSHIRE POLICE ARE URGING PEOPLE TO REGISTER AND PUT IDENTIFYING MARKS
ON EXISTING OR NEWLY ACQUIRED VALUABLES FOLLOWING THE FESTIVE SEASON.
THE POLICE KNOW THAT MANY PEOPLE WILL HAVE HAD NEW VALUABLES FOR
CHRISTMAS AND THEY WANT TO HELP KEEP YOUR BELONGINGS SAFE.
MARKING AND REGISTERING PROPERTY ALSO GIVES YOU A BETTER CHANCE OF
REUNITING YOU WITH YOUR BELONGINGS SHOULD YOU UNFORTUNATELY BECOME A
VICTIM OF CRIME.
REGISTER YOUR VALUABLES SUCH AS TOOLS OR ELECTRONIC DEVICES USING AN
ACCREDITED PROPERTY DATABASE SUCH AS IMMOBILISE .
YOU CAN REGISTER ANYTHING THAT HAS A SERIAL NUMBER FREE OF CHARGE WITH
IMMOBILISE.
THEY WOULD ALSO ENCOURAGE YOU TO REGISTER YOUR FRAME NUMBER FOR FREE ON
A DATABASE SUCH AS BIKE REGISTER.
THE FRAME NUMBER IS USUALLY EASILY LOCATED ON THE CRANK SHAFT.
YOU CAN ALSO MARK YOUR VALUABLES USING FORENSIC MARKING SOLUTION ONLY
VISIBLE UNDER ULTRAVIOLET ( UV ) LIGHT TO MAKE THEM LESS ATTRACTIVE TO THIEVES
THIS CAN TAKE THE FORM OF A SPECIAL MARKER USING INK OR PAINT.
MARK OR ETCH YOUR PROPERTY WITH YOUR POSTCODE , HOUSE. OR FLAT NUMBER OR
THE FIRST THREE LETTERS OF YOUR ADDRESS.
ALL THESE MEASURES HELP POLICE IDENTIFY STOLEN GOODS MAKING IT HARDER FOR
THIEVES TO SELL .
THEY ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS AND KEEP DOCUMENTS LIKE RECEIPTS
RELATED TO YOUR PROPERTY SO YOU CAN PROVE OWNERSHIP .
INSPECTOR MIKE HEAD SAID IF THEY RECOVER ITEMS WHICH THEY BELIEVE TO BE
STOLEN BUT AREN’T REGISTERED OR DON’T MATCH UP TO ANY REPORTS THEY
HOLD THEY WON’T BE ABLE TO RETURN THEM TO THE RIGHTFUL OWNER.
TAKING PICTURES IS QUICK AND EASY AS WELL AND IT MEANS THEY HAVE SOMETHING
FURTHER TO EVIDENCE YOUR OWNERSHIP OR PROVIDE A DESCRIPTION TO THE PUBLIC .
LOCAL NEIGHBOURHOOD POLICING TEAMS WILL BE HOLDING PROPERTY MARKING
SESSIONS OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND WE WOULD ENCOURAGE US TO CHECK THE
LOCAL FACEBOOK PAGES FOR DETAILS OR DATES , TIMES AND LOCATIONS.
