robotech_masterI just got the kind of surprise that it's not nice to get on the day after Christmas.
The cable lock that held my scooter to the pole of the car port where I locked it has been cut.
My scooter is gone.
There's one note of hope. I was contacted by a police officer day before yesterday about a burglary on a nearby house. When I called him back to talk about it last night, I learned they had found a checkbook in my name in the garage of the house where the loot was, along with stuff that looked like it might have come from a vehicle. At the time, I had no idea where the checkbook would have come from, and said so—but I hadn't gone out to check my scooter at the time. Now that I know it's missing, I strongly suspect that checkbook was the one I kept in the underseat compartment of it.
Today when I call the scooter shop to get the VIN and model year, then call the police station to add it to the report, I'll see if and when I can get in touch with that particular police officer. If I'm really lucky, the scooter was there too.
Crap.

Even if they didn't take any checks, the thief might have your account number and routing number and other things thieves ought not have, along with any address info on the front of the check.
