Here at Temple Sheriff Station we would like to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season. Over the next few weeks, people will be hurrying from store to store buying gifts. With that in mind we would like to offer you some helpful tips to make your gift buying efforts safer and more secure.
- Shop during daylight hours
- Shop with a friend or family member
- Secure all car doors and windows
- Don’t make it easy for thieves by leaving valuables and packages in plain view
- Try not to carry large amounts of cash
- If you use a ATM choose a well populated area and shield your PIN # from the view of others
- Pay for purchases with a credit card when possible
- Pay extra attention to your purse or wallet especially in crowded areas
- Be aware of your surroundings. This time of year brings out the con artists who will use various tricks to distract you and steal your items.
- When at home try not to display your gifts in an area that can be viewed through a window or entry door
- Try not to leave packages on doorsteps
- Don’t display your new oversized boxes in your trash can. This tells thieves what you have inside.
