Here’s a new modus operandi by car thieves.

Police yesterday said car robbers, after forcibly taking the vehicles from their victims, would ask the victims to sign a blank paper which were then made into a “deed of sale,” which they could use to sell legally the stolen vehicles.

Inspector Enrico Figueroa, head of the theft and robbery section of the Quezon City Police District, said they discovered the new modus operandi by car robbers after a suspected carjacker was arrested on Tuesday.

“The car robbers asked the victim to sign a blank paper which will be made into a deed of sale because it would be easier for the robbers to sell the car without the buyer suspecting it’s stolen,” Figueroa said.

Figueroa identified the arrested suspect as Arnold Maneja, 41, of Quezon City.
