I think we could all stand to pay just a little bit more attention to what is going on around us while out in public.
I Recently read, in my local paper, about a woman who lost her purse while pumping gas. She explains how she pulled into the gas station in a very busy part of town, and with many other people around. Her gas tank being on the passenger side of the car, she parked appropriatly. She exited her vehicle and proceeded around the car to begin pumping her gasaline. She finished pumping her fuel and reentered her car. She then notice that her purse was missing. When she originally exited the car, she took only the one credit card she needed to pay at the pump and left her purse sitting on the passenger seat. A bit frazeled she went into the gas station store and spoke to the manager. Together they observed the security tapes of the pump area. There it was, all captured on video.
When she originally pulled into the pumps, a small sedan followed her in and parked at the opposite pump to her drivers door (remember her gas tank was on the passenger side of her vehicle). After she exited her vehicle and proceeded around her car, and inserted her credit card into the pump, a passenger from the sedan parked opposite of her, exited the passenger side of his car, and while squatting down low, opened her car door, entered her vehicle through her drivers door, removed her purse and closed the door very softly. All this was done in less than 30 seconds!
Now I can tell you how to combat this type of theft, but that would be assuming that you were an idiot. What I would really like to drum home to you, is that by just paying a little bit more attention to what is going on around us, this type of activity would not have been possible. I would however, suggest that you always carry your key chain out of the car when refueling, and preferrably have a Key chain pepper spray attached. If this woman had caught this man in mid theft, it may have come in handy. Another good tool would be a portable personal alarm attached to her purse, that would have activated when it was moved. That really would have dumbfounded him.
I thought doubely hard about this crime when I found myself parked at the gas pumps, in a similar manner, just a few days after I read about my neighbors victimization. While pumping my own gas, a woman drove into the gas station and stopped a couple of islands away from me (the station was not to busy) and proceeded to ask me directions. As she was a bit of a soft talker, and me being slightly hard of hearing, I left the close vacinity of my vehicle and walked over to her vehicle to give her directions. After giving her directions and making sure she understood them, I realized that I had left my car unlocked and if some one had wanted to enter it while the woman distracted me by asking for directions, they most easily could have. I was lucky that she really did only need directions.
My point is that we all could stand to be just a little more aware of the situation around us. I know we like to think that it can never happen to us, but there really are people out there that are willing to take what is rightfully yours if the oppourtunity is given to them. I’m also not advocating that we all become paranoid of everyone around us. I’m just reminding everyone that An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Security Equipment Corporation joins the fight against breast cancer via
a donation made on the sale of every PINK (HC-NBCF-01) pepper spray..
Every two (2) minutes, a woman in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer.
There are over two million (2,000,000) women living in America with breast cancer and
approximately one (1) in every eight (8) women will develop breast cancer within their
lifetime. According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer has now become the
most frequently diagnosed cancer in women.
The NBCF Mission “is to save lives by increasing awareness of breast cancer through
education and by providing mammograms for those in need”. The NBCF provided
more than 22,000 free mammograms for underinsured women in America in 2006, and
the Foundation also supports cancer research, primarily through a relationship with the University of Texas
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, and research programs at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, OH.
Unfortunately, nearly every American household has been affected by cancer and similar to most families, Security
Equipment Corporation (SEC), a family owned and operated business, has had several members diagnosed with
cancer. SEC’s President and founder, Larry D. Nance, has been a patient of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Fully
realizing the seriousness of this disease, SEC was pleased to learn about the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s
(NBCF) efforts to fight breast cancer and support cancer research. SEC is proud to announce it has joined the NBCF
in the fight against breast cancer.
Beginning January 1, 2008, SEC will make a donation to the NBCF on the sale of each
SABRE RED, Pink, Key Chainpepper spray (HC-NBCF-01). SEC’s compact and most popular key chain pepper spray is equipped with a quick
release key ring and deploys up to 25 shots at a 10 foot range. David Nance, SEC Vice President, said, “We are very
happy and proud to support the NBCF and its fight against breast cancer. Fortunately, the NBCF chose our most
practical and popular SABRE product which maximizes SEC’s ability to support this excellent charity and cause”.
This partnership enables consumers throughout the United States to support an excellent charity while equipping
themselves or a loved one with the increased safety provided by SABRE RED pepper spray. Look for the new pink
packaging shown above at one of thousands of retailers within the US beginning in 2008 and join the fight against
both cancer and crime.
Since 1975, Security Equipment Corporation has produced the most effective line of defense spray products.
Branded as SABRE, SABRE RED and FRONTIERSMAN, customers are offered the finest defense spray possible with
one thought in mind: When a life is at stake, our products must be effective.
Pepper spray and pepper spray products are remarkably useful for a full range of purposes. Whether you’re looking for self-defense or a way to ensure your safety while engaging in outdoor exercise, pepper spray is an excellent product. There are many tales of endurance athletes encountering dangerous animals in the wilderness. One goes so far as to say that during a very long foot race through one of the western states a runner was attacked and killed by a mountain lion!Oh, if only he had pepper spray! Light weight and convenient, it never ceases to amaze me that something that costs less than fifteen dollars can save your life. For bear hunters or just hunters in general you never know when you might encounter a defiant or highly-territorial animal and with a can of pepper spray you can deliver a non-lethal dose to an attacking animal. Useful stuff in so many cases!
ATM SECURITY
ATM cash machines have been incorporated in our way of life. They offer a real convenience to those on the run but at the same time offer an element of risk. Using an ATM machine safely requires you to be aware of your surroundings, and a little planning. Just because an ATM machine is open and available 24-hours a day doesn’t mean it is safe to use it. It is a fact that most ATM robberies occur at night between 8:00 PM and midnight, but they DO occur during the day as well. ATM robbers are usually males under 25 years of age and most work alone. ATM robbers usually position themselves nearby waiting for a victim to approach and withdraw cash. Most ATM robbery victims are women, were alone when robbed, and most claim that they never saw the robber coming. Most ATM robbers used a gun or claimed to have a concealed weapon when confronting the victim and demanding their cash.
If you or your family members use ATM cash machines on a regular basis, here are some tips that can make the process a little safer:
* Use only ATM machines in well-lighted, high-traffic areas. Don’t use ATM machines that are remote or hidden such as being located behind buildings, behind pillars, walls, or away from public view. Beware of obvious hiding places like shrubbery or overgrown trees. ATM robbers like to have the element of surprise and no witnesses. Robbers like good escape routes like nearby freeway on-ramps or high speed thoroughfares.* Choose an ATM that looks and ‘feels’ safer, even if it is a couple of miles out of the way. Try and limit your use to daylight hours. Take someone with you after hours, if you can. When you drive up to an ATM location, scan the area for any suspicious persons. If you see anyone suspicious standing nearby or sitting in a car, drive away. When you approach an ATM on foot be prepared and have your access card ready. If you have a Defense Spray, have it ready also. Memorize your personal PIN number to prevent loss and speed the transaction. After inserting your card and your PIN number keep an eye out behind you. Never accept an offer to help or request for help from anyone suspicious ahead of you at the machine. If anyone suspicious or seemingly dangerous approaches terminate your transaction and leave immediately, even if it means running away and leaving your ATM card in the machine. First, tell the suspicious person in a loud, firm voice to “back-off” and leave you alone. This is designed to startle the person and give you time to flee, if appropriate. When you receive cash from the machine put it away immediately, extract your card, and walk away.* If you use your car at a drive-thru ATM machine the same rules apply. KEEP THE CAR IN GEAR, with your foot firmly on the brake, while using the ATM machine. Keep a close eye on your rear and side view mirrors during the transaction. Robbers almost always approach from the rear on the drivers side. If you see anyone approaching, drive off even if it means leaving your ATM card behind. If you are confronted by an armed robber, just give up your money without argument. The cash is not worth serious injury or death. Get to a safe place and call the police immediately.
A quick recap:
- If lights around the ATM are not working, don’t use that machine
- Avoid ATM machines adjacent to obvious hiding places
- Have your card and Defense Spray ready, leave quickly, not counting your cash in public
- Beware of offers for help from strangers during an ATM transaction
- Don’t fight with or attempt to follow the robber
- Drive or walk to a safe place and immediately call the police
I got a couple of your pepper spray products for my friends this past Christmas and they were very thankful. We all work together and didn’t anticipate how early it was going to get dark this winter. As a result we’ve often all left work together escorting one another to our cars so that we don’t get jumped or attacked.
Since buying this product we still walk out together, but not for the same reason. It’s nice to not be afraid. Constant vigilance is not a healthy state of mind and your products have helped all of us be free of it. It’s certainly no fun to be afraid to leave work because you fear being attacked. Since I work in a major urban center it’s a true reality and it happens. But not to me!
