Can Airtags really be used to track stolen items? My concern/question is really quite simple. If I place an Airtag in my car and the car gets stolen. Wouldn't the thief be notified that he's being "tracked"? And as such can have the Airtag sound an alert and then find it and remove it? So in reality Airtags are "only" for misplaced items?

For example, I put an AirTag into my wallet, and I forgot to take it when I leave the restaurant.

Will the AirTag or iPhone play an alert to remind me when I leave my AirTag so far (maybe 300m, maybe 500m, or when the Bluetooth connection was lost)?
