You may have placed it there temporarily and forgotten
📌 Ever paid with cash at a pump? That could be your own penny!
3. Kids or Pranksters
Children playing outside may tuck coins into cracks for fun
A harmless prank among friends or family
💡 Not every odd thing has a dark meaning.

❌ Debunking the “Thief Signal” Myth
The Viral Claim:
“Criminals place pennies (or floss, tape, stickers) on car doors to signal which vehicles are easy targets.”
The Reality:
No police department or federal agency has confirmed such a system exists
FBI, AAA, and local law enforcement have issued statements debunking the myth
Similar rumors have circulated for years — with toothpicks, string, leaves, etc.
