It is important to have clear visibility and freedom of motion to avoid mishaps. • Beware of strangers approaching you for any reason. At this time of year, con-artists may try various methods of distracting you with the intention of taking your money or belongings. • If you place packages in your car and plan to continue shopping, place them in the trunk of your car and drive to another parking space, even if it means searching for a new spot. The holidays are also a time when thieves and con artists are frequently on the prowl. Here are some tips to help keep your home, your car, your possessions, and your family safe. • Avoid displaying gifts where they can be seen from a window or doorway. • Arrange to have packages delivered to a neighbor if you’re not home to receive them. Packages left on porches or doorsteps are “easy picking” for thieves. It also draws unwanted attention to your home. • Consider simple outside decorations. Elaborate or large lawn pieces are often stolen right out of the lawn. Be sure not to obscure the view from your windows. You need a clear view of your property. • Always lock your home’s doors and windows, even if you’re only gone for a few minutes. • Compact or dispose of packaging discreetly. Often criminals will spot something you’ve discarded and can target you for their next burglary or theft. • Notify RSVP when you’re planning an absence, as they will patrol your home. 858.487.9324 ed brown senior center Don’t Forget to invite your friends and neighbors to join the Center for our Membership Drive!
