Organised Crime Case - anyone else involved?
So, my M135i was stolen in summer of 2020. I recently received a letter from BMW Group saying that they have been working with the Met Police, and have confirmed that my vehicle was stolen as part of an organised crime operation.
Apparently, criminals had gone in to a BMW Stratstone dealership with forged documents claiming that they had recently purchased my vehicle from an auction. The dealership then handed over a key for my car to the criminals. Unbelievable.
When I spoke to the police they seemed to indicate I was one of many victims from this operation. Does anyone know of anyone else that has had similar contact from BMW/the police?
I'm now waiting for the dealership to contact me with a compensation offer. Something tells me it isn't going to come close to covering the loss and hassle that came from the vehicle being stolen in the height of lockdown last year. Does anyone have any advice/experience on how to handle a matter like this? Thanks in advance!
