GEORGE NEWS - After a recent spate of attempted break-ins and house robberies, and with white collar crime on the rise, George Police and George South Sector 3 police forum sent out the following tips:
1. Do not approach anyone on your premises during the night. It might be a criminal and he / she might be armed with a firearm or knife. Rather phone the police, security company or neighbourhood watch in your area.
2. Install a panic alarm if possible.
3. Become part of your local neighbourhood watch or neighbourhood WhatsApp group.
4. Make sure that all windows and doors are closed and locked at night.
5. White collar crime is also on the rise - refrain from paying money into unknown accounts via the Internet.
