Sort of almost got robbed

About 6 months or more ago, me and Dad got into one of our cars to drive somewhere and it turned out the contents of the glovebox were on the passenger seat, so someone had opened the car (parents must have left it unlocked) and searched it overnight while it was in our driveway.
A few days ago the same thing happened except it was the car furtherest back in the driveway, closest to the back yard. They moved my old CD walkman to the back seat.
Nothing was taken either time and they let us know they had been in there, showing us we didn't lock our cars.
I'm wondering if this means we're somehow marked or if this means something else...idk. Our first guess was they are people who walk around at night checking parked cars for valuables, but it could be more sinister.

This reminds me, my parents always lock the doors and shit and are pretty safety-conscious but I came home like three nights ago and the blinds were open into the kitchen and a laptop, two mobile's, a kindle and a tablet were all in plain view on the table...Damn like dont make it so fuckin easy if someone did break in

They probably figured anyone still using a CD walkman isn't worth robbing and gave up.

Probably took it home and felt bad so they put it back. Try putting your web cam and laptop in the car so you can catch them on video.
