Thanks to an Airtag, Pamela Cerdeira located donations that never arrived in Turkey.
Airtags have been very useful devices for all people. For example, they have been very good at finding luggage on trips and recovering stolen cars. But it looks like they can also be used to find other things, like donations made by Mexican citizens, which has been in the news in the Latin American country in recent days.
A new scandal has erupted in Mexico, since a reporter showed that someone stole donations that were supposed to go to Turkey after the earthquake earlier this year. It’s investigative journalism.

In this tweet, which is also accompanied by a YouTube videoCerdeira explains that he had donated a bag of rice and a packet of toilet paper and brought them to a collection center that the Mexico City government would set up in Zócalo Square.
I had wondered, as surely many people who are used to donating, do they arrive at their destination? For this reason, I decided to use Apple’s technology, Airtags, to track and follow. Unfortunately, the donations never arrived, so I am awaiting explanations from the head of government in Mexico City.
Airtags proved that some foods never reached Turkey.
Thanks to the Find My application, it has been shown that the objects donated by the journalist never reached Turkey; It is more, They never left Mexico. Knowing the place, Pamela Cerdeira had started looking for them, surprised that they were found in local markets in Mexico City, as merchandise for sale.
It took several weeks for my items to change location again. The rice seemed to be in an apartment building and the paper in a market. Finding the rice was complicated because they did not allow me to access the possible locations: an SEP library and a school, curiously in this same direction the deputy of Morena Oscar Gutiérrez Camacho realized his food bank to help the population, by the way, I looked for him to interview him but did not get an answer.
Airtags have become a very useful device for all kinds of investigations, such as the case that exposed the false recycling of Dow Inc by the government of Singapore or when the mayor of New York gave 500 Airtags to prevent the theft of vehicles in the entity, which had many increased over the years.
