3 Ways to know if you’re being targeted by Burglars
A burglar can be anyone, perhaps someone
you’ve even met before, like the plumber who visited your home a while ago. Here’s
what you should look for when you’re keeping an eye out for burglars...
1.
Suspicious People or Vehicles
Always be on the lookout for odd cars or
people on the street that are out of the norm. No matter where you stay, it is
best to keep your eyes open for anything suspicious, and never be afraid to
call the police or local neighbourhood watch. Press the emergency SOS button on
the PatrolMan app to summon help to your location immediately!
2.
An Odd Request or Maintenance
Work Offer
Never, ever open the door for a stranger,
even if they insist they need to do repair or are offering handy work for your
home. This is an opportunity for potential burglars to scope out the interior
of your home as well as to get an idea of what your attitude is like towards
strangers.
3.
Slight Changes
Pay attention to your surroundings and your
home’s surroundings. A small change can mean that your house is being watched
by criminals who are waiting to strike. Certain signs, such as random objects
left outside or markings on your wall can mean that your house is being cased.
