Thieves frequently operate:

In car parks

Around bus stations

In overcrowded areas, especially at rush hour

In dark secluded areas

Be aware and keep your possessions safe:

Don't display expensive jewellery, mobile  phones or cameras

Don’t make your mobile phone a moving target

Don’t tempt mobile phone thieves, be aware when making a call

Reduce the risk of mobile phone theft by following these simple tips:

When you leave a train or bus don’t use your phone immediately, leave it a while

Don’t walk and text at the same time; you will be less aware of what is happening around you

Keep calls in public places as brief as possible -- the longer you talk, the more likely you are to be spotted by a potential thief
