Beware Pick Pockets

Pick Pockets post in Nextdoor:-

"My partner took my mother in law to Bexleyheath today and got her some money out and gave her the card back. She is in her eighties and likes to be independent. She went in the charity shop next door while he waited outside for her. Within less than 10 minutes his phone was coming up with notifications of purchases in a different shop. Luckily it’s a Monzo card so froze it straight away and followed by loads of declined messages. It seems they are hanging about charity shops waiting for old and vulnerable people. 😟"

Get some bell jingles as a crime prevention measure for any vulnerable person you know that can be attached to the purse itself and makes a loud noise to deter any would be pick pocketer.

Or purchase the minder jingles online :-



Contact Bexley Watch or visit the crime prevention shop in Bluewater for one.
