Summary of Traveler Beware! An Undercover Cop's Guide to Avoiding: Pickpockets, Luggage Theft, and Travel Scams (Travel Safety)

This is an information rich program providing advice and tips on how to outfox professional thieves and protect your luggage, laptop, briefcase or purse while on the road. Suited to both leisure and business travelers, this program tells you how you can decrease your victim potential and reduce your chances of becoming a mark for professional thieves, pickpockets and con artists. It describes the latest scams that can occur in locations where there are many travelers are such as airports, taxi cabs, shuttle buses and even in public bathrooms!

It only takes a second to be distracted by what you think is a lost traveler, crying child or someone needing your aid or innocently asking you what time it is. While you're distracted by this "actor", another member of the distraction team has relieved you of your valuables. Did you know there are actual schools pickpockets attend to learn their craft and graduate from?

The tape is the only resource that thoroughly covers laptop theft prevention. The theft of laptops from travelers has grown every year. What use to be a thief's coveted prize several years ago was a high end 35 mm camera, five years ago it was the camcorder, today it's the laptop. They are easy to steal and easy to fence to a disreputable pawn shop or unsuspecting buyer who can't pass up a "good deal." This tape will provide the valuable information to keep your laptop in the right hands (yours) while on the road. In addition, the program also discusses all the aspects of luggage, from how dishonest baggage handlers easily open your luggage, to luggage locks and luggage insurance. You will hear an insider's point of view on soft sided vs. hard sided luggage as well as tips on choosing luggage locks and insurance. Do they work, and which ones are best? If you follow the advice the author offers you will travel with greater peace of mind knowing you've done your best to help both you and your property make it safely to your destination. . After you hear this program you will want to make sure your loved ones hear it too before their very next trip.
