1100 Units of VT007 Vibration Plate Stolen
In February 2025, 1100 units of our VT007 vibration plate were stolen along with the trailer transporting them at the Port of Seattle. When I was convinced the trailer was stolen, I duly filed a police report with the Seattle Police Department.
In about a month, my case was assigned to a detective in SPD. It appeared no investigation was ever made on this case by the police, except for verifying I was the cargo owner.
Stolen VT007 Sold on Internet
End of March, I found the stolen VT007 units were listed on Facebook for sale by a couple of sellers. It was obvious that these sellers were associated with the theft, as they told interested customers they had many of this product. Their Facebook profile location showed they were in the Los Angeles area.
I immediately reported my findings to the Seattle detective, but he therefore transferred my case to the Los Angeles Police Department.
After the transfer, the Seattle detective considered his job done. However, I did not receive any response from LAPD and had to ask the Seattle detective to get me connected to the corresponding LAPD detective. He told me he could not provide that information according to their policy...
LAPD Not Responding...
Long story short, from when my case was transfered to LAPD, it took over two months before I received a message from them.
At the end of June, finally, an LAPD detective emailed me, saying he “intended to knock on some doors this week...".
At the time I found the stolen VT007 units were listed not only on Facebook, but also on eBay and Walmart.com. I provided these listings and seller profiles to the LAPD detective. I considered the seller on Walmart.com could be easier to locate due to Walmart's seller registration requirements.
(This Walmart seller listed a lot of unrelated commodities that were very likely stolen goods. It must be part of an organized crime.)
The stolen VT007 vibration plates were easy to identify because they were my new design that I had not yet received. Due to the theft, I was out of inventory and had to suspend my sales for 4 months, waiting for my next production to arrive. During this period, any one selling the new design VT007 could be associated with the theft.
Despite all information I provided to the LAPD detective, I received no further communication from him, and my follow-up emails were simply ignored.
November — Nothing from LAPD!
As of November 2025, I have heard nothing further from LAPD. It is as if the case does not exist.
Stolen VT007 units continue to be sold on the internet, causing ongoing damage to our business and reputation.
