- Don’t leave your property/purchases unattended.
- Stay alert and aware of your surroundings.
- Secure bags and valuables before exiting or entering parked vehicles and public transit facilities.
- Avoid leaving valuables in your car. Whenever possible, place items (GPS, electronic accessories, etc.) out of sight (preferably in the trunk) prior to arriving at your destination.
- Plan your trip in advance, and travel on populated, well-lit streets.
- Avoid cell phone usage while walking, this is a prime time for a thief to grab your phone and run.
- Carry only the cash and credit cards you will be using on your shopping trip. Divide the cash between your purse, pockets and wallet. Keep a record of account numbers for each card.
- Carry your purse close to your body. Never wrap the strap around your body. A wallet should be carried in front pants pocket or breast pocket of your jacket.
- While dining or shopping don’t leave your handbag over the back of a chair or stroller.
- Don’t wait until you have reached your front door to look for your keys, have them ready in your hand.
