Have you ever been a victim of a crime or a "near-victim" in that the criminal was not able to accomplish what he wanted to do to you? By 'crime' I'm referring to scams, theft (by pickpockets, snatchers, unwelcome home intruders & invaders), holdups, violence vs persons (by thugs, lasengeros, bums, etc), "salisi", "budol-budol" and others. Did you report the crime? Were you hurt during the commission of the crime? Were you helped by eyewitnesses? Here's my experience in Pinas which happened several years ago when we were still living in Pinas. I watched a movie near Avenida Rizal and on my way home coming from the theater (time was about 7PM) I was accosted by about 10 guys and held me at knife point. Remember, Avenida was busy at the time but it seemed like nobody was paying attention to us. Anyway, they surrounded me and took my watch which was a gift given by my dad. I was almost also a victim of having my foreign currencies lifted by a female pickpocket (happened a few months ago) and this happened after exchanging dollars for pesos at a money changer. I think professional thieves probably sit and wait not too far from money sources like money changers, banks, remittance centers, LBC, Fedex, specially the ones located in malls. So if you withdrew cash, or have your foreign currencies changed to pesos, or you received money through LBC or Llulhier (don't know if that's spelled right), look around your immediate area when you come out of such establishments and notice the people looking at or making side glances at you. They probably already spotted you as their next victim. When that happened to me, I wasn't even wearing my Armani attire and my Brooks Brothers watch. :laff: I was dressed very casually like just another face in a crowd.

Yes, I was. Nadukotan ako sa isang crowded na bus. Kasusweldo ko lang noon. Bwisit! :galit: Word of caution lang: Kung maaari avoid nyong sumakay sa mga bus na punong-puno ng pasahero. O kaya ilagay yung wallet ninyo sa harap ng katawan o sa dibdib ninyo. Edited by Jovel Alipio, Aug 20 2016, 04:17 PM.
