SecurityTip067: If you spot a stranded motorist do not just stop. Roll through with your window down and state you are calling for help.

SecurityTip066: Never pick up a hitchhiker, even if you are feeling sorry for the person. This is not a safe practice.
SecurityTip065: When walking or jogging avoid "short cuts". If it was the best or safest route through it would simply be "the way".
SecurityTip064: Don't leave house keys on the ring for a valet. Keys are easy to duplicate and your registration/address is in the car.
SecurityTip063: When arriving home at night look around the garage or parking area before getting out of your secure vehicle.
SecurityTip062: If you get a wrong number call do not give out your phone number but instead ask them what number they called.
SecurityTip061: If you have a dog train it to bark when someone is at the door or trying to enter the house to create advanced warning.
SecurityTip060: When emailing someone you are unfamiliar with do not give out your name, address, phone number, or personal info.
SecurityTip059: This is especially for females, if a guy offers to buy you a drink go to the bar and watch the bartender pour it.
SecurityTip058: Do not write down your ATM PIN Number. This should be easy for you to remember and hard for anyone else to guess.
SecurityTip057: In a dorm, always lock your door even if you are leaving for a few minutes. This cannot be understated.
SecurityTip056: When getting into your vehicle, especially when parked in a public parking lot, check the backseat.
Security Fail: In a hotel don't put your name on the outside of the door or photos and don't block the peephole.
SecurityTip055: If you have security personnel on site don't just rely on them to recognize potential threats. They can't be everywhere.
SecurityTip053: Don't hold open an access control door for anyone and make sure no one catches it closing after you pass through.
Security052: Initiate a 'clean desk' policy at work. If your desk is messy you may not notice when something is missing or moved.
SecurityTip051: If you have a home phone adjust the ringer volume to the lowest setting or off while you are away.
SecurityTip050: If you have a sliding glass door at home put a pipe or metal bar in the track at night to prevent entry from outside.
SecurityTip049: If you ever get into a minor car accident don't pull over in a deserted area as the offender may have other plans.
SecurityTip048: Concerned about people going through your work dumsters? Add protection by chain locking the lids until pickup day.
