| PROBLEM!!! from the "exterminator"

Well I have just been informed by a fellow cacher that my cache has been muggled. HOWEVER the log book is still there along with the cache container. Everything else is gone and there is a ransom for the TBs that were in it.
I figured I would post this here to see if I can get help from everyone. I have pictures of the log entry and think we all need to figure something out and do something about it. It looks like this will not be the last "attack"   I have notified the TB owners and have linked them to this thread. Here are the missing TBs: http://www.geocaching.com/trac...42-8205-7cf8c423435e http://www.geocaching.com/trac...00-9021-1ed2d1887966 http://www.geocaching.com/trac...22-93c0-7988b91b9732 http://www.geocaching.com/trac...a9-8608-48633cfb8729 This message has been edited.

My "We've Got Bugs!!!..." cache was hit by The Exterminator as well several months back. Unfortunately, at the time it was loaded with tradables (some of them with a very cool history.) Not sure what we can do, especially if this muggle is truly getting rid of the TBs. I'd like to get them back into circulation, for the owner's sake if nothing else, but not sure how to do it.
Additionally, I'd bet that these caches are on a watchlist, too. As such, they may be vulnerable to "attack" again, which would really be unfortunate. Any ideas? |

Every time geocaching is mentioned in our local paper some cachers clap and cheer. We cringe.
You and the TB owners have our sympathies. We've quit putting out TBs and geocoins, except as unactivated ones as a trade item or FTF prize, although we still get a kick out of moving one along. Sadly, no solution comes to mind. Chalk it up to a few bad apples spoiling it for the whole barrel. ____________________ We make difficult caches even more so. |

This "problem" is going to make me pick up TBs and coins from caches more often, even if there are multiples. It is better now in Atlanta to keep them "on the road" than in the cache. As long as we make that a practice, a moving target is hard to grab.
Go Jackets! |

I like the game camera idea. Maybe a decoy cache should be setup??
