| While You're Out |
- Carry your purse very close to you - don’t dangle it from your arm. Also, never leave your purse in a shopping cart.
- Don’t carry any more cash than is necessary. Many grocery stores now accept checks and automatic teller cards instead of cash.
- Avoid walking alone at night. Try to have a friend accompany you in high-risk areas even during the daytime.
- Do not carry weapons - they may only be used against you.
- Have your paychecks or government checks sent directly to your bank account. Many banks have senior citizens discounts.
- Never withdraw money from your bank accounts for anyone except YOURSELF.
