Method #1 Avoiding an Opportunity for Attack

Method #1 Avoiding an Opportunity for Attack

1. Be aware of your surroundings, always- Know where the nearest police or fire station.

2. Travel with someone whenever possible, especially at night- If you live alone, text a friend or family member letting them know where you will be and when to expect to hear from you next.

3. Act with purpose- Don’t ask random people on the street for directions. Go inside a shop and ask a member of staff instead.

4. Lock your doors and windows at home- Most burglaries occur by criminals by trying out door handles or windows in a neighborhood until they find one that is unlocked. Don't risk it.

Method #2 Avoiding Potentially Dangerous People

Method #2 Avoiding Potentially Dangerous



1. Beware of needy strangers- some people are extra sympathetic. Killers often prey on these sympathies to incite them to drop their guard. Say “no” if someone unknown asks for your help getting to/into their vehicle.

2. Trust your gut instinct- Anyone in your surrounding area that makes you feel uncomfortable should be avoided.

3. Never let strange people into your home- If someone arrives at your door as a service person you were not expecting, call the company and verify before opening the door.

4. Avoid giving personal information to strangers- Make your social media profiles private
