Safety Tips
- Make sure to have good LOCKS installed on all doors and be sure to use them. And be sure all windows are locked and well secured.
- Be sure you do not open your door to people you don't know. If a sales or repair person is LEGITIMATE, they will not mind your asking to see identification and confirming their identity with the company they represent.
- Neighbors, colleagues, friends and even your employees will not mind identifying themselves when they knock on your door.
- If a STRANGER comes to your door requesting assistance (e.g. to make a phone call, car trouble, or any other distress) offer to call the necessary people for him/her. Do not make yourself an easy PREY by opening your door to a stranger, especially if you live by yourself or are at home alone.
- For SINGLE MOTHERS, LADIES who live by themselves in a house or apartment, never make this obvious by listing your full name in the phone book or on a mailbox. Use instead your first two initials, or even add another name.
- Be VERY CAREFUL about revealing any personal information over the telephone and/or Internet.
- Make sure your curtains or blinds are drawn at night so people on the outside cannot determine who is in the residence.
- Do not hide a spare key in open places such as under the mat, in a potted plant, under the buckets or somewhere in the kitchen(especially if the kitchen is outside your room), etc. Keep your door keys with you always and probably keep the spare at your parent's, or someone you are at least sure of. Always lock your doors after you enter your residence/house/apartment and also when you leave.
- Be a WATCHDOG for yourself and to others. when you see strange faces in your compound, make sure to ask questions and if such does not give convincing response, please blow the situation. you might be saving yourself and others.
