The basic rule for burglars is to first scout the target and then strike when no one is home. Tricks such as sticking tape on door corners are a thing of the past: anyone who believes that the new methods have anything to do with high-tech is wrong. There is a method that is as simple as it is annoying that the criminals have been using lately.
Is someone currently away from home – or even on holiday for an extended period of time? If burglars notice this, these apartments or houses become real ‘self-service stores’. Previously, victims were spied on by sticking plastic strips or matches in the doorway or placing rocks, branches and cans in the driveway.
Anyone aware of this new criminal scam has been warned! And – no, it’s not a new high-tech method… the trick is easy to discover!
