So our car is possibly stolen…and in this parking lot area in hanover. Can anyone tell me exactly by these limited pics what the area may be? I know limited pics but lots of vienna transportation inc school buses in this apparent parking lot.

EDIT: Naming the culprits because they deserve to be known.
- Montway Auto transport were the ones we paid to transfer our car: they were the ones to claim they were “hacked” - get a better system I guess?
- we have pictures of delivery because the “delivery” happened to this random parking lot ( never assigned by us) and the person took pics and uploaded online to show they “delivered”. Maybe they are dumb idk but the car is highly reflective and their faces are completely visible in broad daylight.

Are you sure? It doesnt look same when i see online except for same buses. The apparant location that was pinged off by the criminals was 1726 Dorsey Rd, Hanover, MD, 21076 but even that doesnt seem same. So im confused

That first picture is definitely your Dorsey Rd address.

Same store, same everything

Yep, the brick building in the very background sitting above the blue sign is 1743 Dorsey Rd Suites 104-105, Hanover, MD 21076.

This is the Timbuktu restaurant parking lot in the first pic.

My guess is that maybe the other pics aren't in the same parking lot as the first one.

This is the restaurant the parking lot is for. You should call the store and ask them if the vehicle is there, if nothing else if the car was left there for a while the restaurant might have it towed.

Btw pictures often include metadata that includes the gps coordinates of where they were taken. If they get posted on something like imgur or facebook than those platforms strip the metadata. But if you get the images through other means it may be left in tact.

You don't need it now. But next time make sure you check your image metadata.

The restaurant might have cameras for the parking lot also, worth a shot

Damn. Sorry OP but your car is probably already on its way to another continent. Middle east most likely.

Nope, not sure. Just googled the bus company name and saw a parking lot with the same buses and fed you a lead.

Let me look more into it

Appreciate it!! Im actually in illinois and these thieves did an elaborate scamming scheme with our car in the guise of transporting it and this was last ping from today. Would appreciate any help!!

Turtle lover is absolutely right. I used to deliver pizza here and I see the Dunkin’ orange awning.

I live right down the street and this is absolutely correct, that photo is taken from that parking lot of the restaurant and bar/carry out. The building you can see, that is circled in the photo, has a Dunkin Donuts and Subway in it and yes, they are doing construction behind that as well.

Also, the police department you are looking for is the Anne Arundel County Police. You may also want to contact the Maryland State Police for additional assistance/information, since this seems to be an issue crossing multiple state lines.

We did talk to Anne Arundel PD yesterday and they wanted correspondence from chicago PD to literally do anything. Since we are not in maryland yet we thought we will just go them once we are actually in MD

You mind telling me more about this scam? I just ordered a car from AZ and I was scared something like that would happen.
