Barcelona on kaunis kaupunki. Matka tänne kannattaa, kunhan tiedät, että kärsimme katurikollisuudesta jonka pääkohtena ovat turistit. Jos et pysy jatkuvasti hereillä liikkuessasi kaupungilla, pääset varmasti omaisuudestasi. Tässä muutamia vinkkejä: Älä kiinnitä huomiota levittelemällä karttoja ja opaskirjoja julkisilla paikolla.

巴塞罗那是个美丽的城市，我们强烈推荐你游览。但是请注意这里有很严重的治安问题，而游客往往是受害者。你要是不小心的话会在这儿被抢。在此有几点有用的建议：手持地图及导游书时请谨慎；请把护照、驾照及其他重要文件留在酒店；只随身携带所需的最少量现金及银行卡；请不要把包放在地上、桌子上或座椅上；尽量选用小相机，手持时请把带子缠在拇指上；下面这点听起来可能有点儿怪——但是当有人试图把腿放到你两腿中间，或者告诉你你衣服上有鸟屎，又或者突然在大街上给你个拥抱的时候⋯⋯你正在被抢！巴塞罗那的抢劫很少伴有暴力行为，但是你真得留心你在干什么。请保持警惕，保持怀疑。如果你被抢了，请在当地警察局报案。如果你懂英语，请点击我们的网站 www.robbedinbarcelona.com获取更多建议。

Catalan broadcaster TV3 produced a documentary (below) entitled “Farts de Furts” (loosely translated, “fed-up with robbery”), first broadcast in May 2010. The documentary includes some shots from our Facebook group “Robbed in Barcelona”, not to be confused with another Facebook group started by Carmen Oko, who is interviewed. The documentary’s emphasis is on police...
Guest post by Bambi Vincent, thiefhunter Thieves who operate on the principles of stealth, motion, or impedence strive to minimize contact with their victim. Zero face-time is their preference. Minimal body contact, zero notice, zero recognition. Other pickpockets, though, cause contact and use it to their advantage. Bob Arno and I (we call ourselves...

Perhaps the Mayor will pay attention to this story, because it affects the pockets of the hotel owners in Barcelona. Barcelona lost visitors, Mr Mayor, it lost visitors, bednights, airport taxes paid, taxis hired, beers bought, trinkets purchased. It lost money. Why? People were afraid of being robbed in Barcelona. Here’s the story, from...

You own a car. You park it near you home. You know it’s vulnerable. It’s been broken into before. You leave nothing on the back seats, you remove the stereo, there’s no money visible, but still it gets broken into, the window smashed. What do you do? Do you try some simple psychology, maybe?...
