MOST USEFUL SECURITY IS ORDINARY HABIT RATHER THAN DRAMATIC PRECAUTION
Attention is the largest single factor, and people who appear aware are selected less often. Put the phone away in public — it removes attention and advertises something worth taking.
ACT ON THE FEELING THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG, BECAUSE EMBARRASSMENT IS THE COMMONEST REASON PEOPLE IGNORE WARNINGS
IF ROBBED, COMPLY — PROPERTY IS REPLACEABLE AND YOU ARE NOT
Resistance is what converts a robbery into an injury. Keep your hands visible, move slowly, and avoid being moved to a second location where there is any possibility of doing so.
DO NOT GO HOME IF YOU ARE BEING FOLLOWED
VARY ROUTINES AND NEVER ANNOUNCE ABSENCE PUBLICLY, BECAUSE PLANNED CRIME DEPENDS ON PREDICTABILITY
Post about travel afterwards, not during.
CHECK THAT SECURITY GRILLES AND GATES CAN BE OPENED QUICKLY FROM INSIDE, SINCE SECURITY MEASURES FREQUENTLY PREVENT ESCAPE FROM FIRE
URGENCY, AUTHORITY AND AN UNUSUAL PAYMENT METHOD ARE THE COMMON THREAD IN FRAUD — VERIFY INDEPENDENTLY USING A NUMBER YOU ALREADY HOLD, AND NEVER GIVE OUT A CODE SENT TO YOU
PROTECT YOUR PRIMARY EMAIL ACCOUNT ABOVE ALL OTHERS, BECAUSE IT IS THE RECOVERY ROUTE FOR EVERYTHING ELSE
TEACH CHILDREN THAT NO ADULT SHOULD ASK THEM TO KEEP A SECRET FROM YOU, AND THAT THEY WILL NEVER BE IN TROUBLE FOR TELLING YOU SOMETHING
AND AFTER AN INCIDENT, NEVER TELL SOMEONE WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE — IT IS THE COMMONEST UNHELPFUL RESPONSE AND IT PRODUCES SELF-BLAME
