Avoid withdrawing money from ATMs in the street and try to use those within banks, which are more discrete and secure. Immediately put all money in your wallet and never remain in a public location with visible cash.
Never play games of luck in the street. These games of chance, which can be a scam, are sometimes on offer in public places. If you observe the scene, accomplices may also be able to steal your wallet, telephone or identity papers.
There are also strategies of scams such as an item of jewellery which falls on the floor or false petitions. Insofar as possible, it is recommended not to stop to look around or talk with such an individual. Continue on your way as fast as possible and avoid talking. If you are in an isolated location, try to go to a public place as quickly as possible where there are a lot of people. Check that your bag is closed and your personal effects are isolated. Keep your bag close to you.
