While this specific product is geared towards pharmaceutical thefts, since the launch of our NarcoTracker we have created covert GPS trackers to meet different needs across a variety of industries. Covert and very cleverly disguised GPS trackers have since been built & deployed for clients in Law-Enforcement, Major Freight & Logistics companies, and other organizations that have a need for discreet asset tracking and management. The base product is the same with minor configurations catered for the client and their specific use-case.
Protect Pharmaceutical Products from Robbery, Theft and Pilfering.
Crime against pharmacies is a serious and growing issue. Potent drugs and high street prices have made pharmacy robbery and burglary attractive prospects for addicts and criminals looking to score a highly valuable asset to the industry. To safeguard your business and protect employees, customers, and the community as a whole, you need a solution to get violent offenders out of your store and into the hands of law enforcement.
NarcoTracker is a covert & disguised GPS Tracking solution with zero fees post-purchase, aimed at helping protect pharmacies against many types of targeted crimes. Virtually undetectable by criminals, this product is designed to indistinguishably resemble one of the most sought-after narcotic bottles available. NarcoTracker uses proven, state-of-the-art GPS technology to silently and automatically track the location of the suspect and the asset for apprehension and recovery within seconds of being activated, the entire process starts once a NarcoTracker bottle detects tilt or motion (Akin to a smash & grab robbery).
NarcoTracker is purposely intended to be stolen. Unwitting thieves looking to make a swift escape are hastily grabbing any bottle they suspect is of value from your pharmacy safe. However, quite often they are unaware of exactly what they are stealing. NarcoTracker blends in, with a clear and obvious near-identical label which boasts "TEVA-OXYCOCET/500 Tablets/5mg /325mg". These key-words have been chosen for our label design intentionally, because more often than not, these key-words are what thieves pilfering through a pharmacy are familiar with. Our decoy bottles which house the covert trackers are identical in appearance and feel, the bottle label is an identical sticker printed on high quality vinyl.
What happens if a thief opens the bottle? Based on feedback sought from several pharmacists who have had the unfortunate experience of being robbed, it is more than likely that the entire bottle is stolen rather than inspected on the spot, a smash and grab robbery is exactly that, grab as much as you can and flee the scene of the crime as quickly as you can. The covert tracker is buried by hundreds of false Starch pills in the event a bottle is opened.
GPS Trackers as a Solution to Pharmaceutical Crime
With the advent of discreet, portable GPS trackers, things are beginning to change. There are a number of ways these devices can greatly enhance pharmacy security, both for prevention of crime and apprehension of criminals. Having covert GPS trackers in specific “bait bottles,” or even just in those on display, can not only assist in the apprehension of “smash-and-grab” type robberies, but will also deter thieves who know the devices are present, this is also achieved by disguising GPS Trackers as highly recognizable brand-name opioids, with an exact replica bottle which contains false tablets that hide the GPS tracker (Pictured). Additionally, having a standalone GPS tracker on hand behind the counter can allow pharmacists to discreetly slip it in with drugs or cash in a bag if they are forced to hand these over to a thief.
There are already cases, large-scale and small, throughout the country, of thieves and criminals being apprehended thanks to GPS trackers in pharmaceutical shipments or packaging. The same can be said for transport – it’s a good idea for any transportation fleet responsible for shipping or delivery of pharmaceutical goods to be equipped with GPS trackers. This not only keeps employees accountable but can assist authorities in tracking down stolen vehicles, should a vehicle theft occur. Our Covert Trackers are currently only available in a decoy pill bottle which is identical to the original manufacturer bottle; however, a future product model will be available which resembles pill cartridge sheets of certain opioids/narcotics.
