LESSONS LEARNED
Trust Your Intuition: Pay attention to how you feel when strangers approach you, especially if they are overly friendly. It’s okay to listen to your gut and act on it.
Use Your Voice: Don’t hesitate to speak up loudly if someone invades your personal space. A simple, firm "Stop!" can deter potential threats.
Be Aware of Distraction Techniques: Criminals may use friendliness or ask for help to divert your attention and steal your belongings.
Report Suspicious Activity: Even if a crime wasn’t committed, reporting suspicious behavior to the police helps prevent future crimes and assists with investigations.
Stay Mindful in Public: Keep an eye on your surroundings, avoid getting absorbed in your phone, and be cautious when wearing valuable jewelry in public places.
