Tangshan Seaport Police Tips: Summer "Four Preventions" Tips

Xia Yi is getting stronger, and some seasonal cases such as pickpocketing in the public places, burglary in the house, robbery in the car, street fraud, etc. have also entered the stage of frequent occurrence. The Tangshan Seaport Police reminded the general public that the shoulder bag should be slung on one shoulder when going out in summer. Try to avoid carrying valuables or wearing expensive jewelry to travel alone.

1. Anti-pickup tips: Beware of your belongings. When people take the bus, do n’t squeeze in crowded places, keep your wallet in your pocket, and be alert to strangers who are “sticking” to you. When shopping, go together with the money and things in sight. When dining at a restaurant, do not place valuables such as mobile phones and bags, but pay attention to the items placed on the back of the chair.

2. Anti-theft tips: Locking doors and windows is the key. Citizens should close the doors and windows when going out or sleeping at night. Residents with conditions can design and install sturdy in-line anti-theft doors and windows, and install anti-climbing on the air-conditioning outside machine. It is necessary to check the anti-theft facilities at home frequently and find any problems to repair in time. Residents on low floors are advised to keep items such as clothing, purses, and mobile phones away from windows or places that are not easily accessible by criminals.

3. Anti-fraud Tips: There will be no pies in the sky. The weather is getting hotter, and there are more elderly people getting up early. Scammers often use "means to share things", "go to disease and eliminate disasters", and "exchange foreign currency" to defraud them. The police reminded the public not to be greedy to pick up bargains, and to discuss things with others.

4. Anti-robbing tips: Try not to go alone at night. In the summer, the number of female citizens wearing jewelry is increasing, which is easy to become the target of criminals. The police reminded the shoulder bag to be slung on one shoulder when going out in summer. Try to avoid carrying valuables or wearing expensive jewelry to travel alone. If you find suspicious persons or vehicles trailing when you go out, you should avoid or call the police. It is best to take a taxi home at night. In case of unlawful infringement, do not blindly pursue or confront each other, try to remember the characteristics of the suspect and vehicle, the direction of escape, and report to the public security organ as soon as possible.
