“You can avoid being pickpocketed by being cautious,” says HSL’s security expert Jaakko Heinilä. Keep your wallet and phone hidden so that a thief cannot snatch them easily from you. The best advice is to keep your wallet in a closed pocket.”
“Do not keep any written passwords or PIN codes in your wallet. Protect your mobile device with a passcode. If you lose your phone or payment card or they get stolen, have them blocked immediately.”
