(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, October 28, 2014 ) Valley Cottage, New York -- Advantage World, manufacturer and retailer of high quality products for the frequent traveler has announced the release of a new video that will instruct travelers on the proper way to wear a money belt. The video also gives viewers tips on how to protect important legal documents while on their trips.
When wearing a money belt video shows how it should fit. By all means it should be comfortable and secure. It would do the wearer no good if the contents were not easily accessible. And no matter what the person is wearing, it should be well-hidden.
Statistic regarding pickpockets and purse snatchers are extremely vague and do not give an accurate count of incidents. This is because so many cases go unreported. Victims are embarrassed, frightened or know that it will be very difficult for the authorities to catch the perpetrators. Here is the US, major cities have cameras in high-traffic areas, but it is difficult to identify many of the culprits.
Incidences of theft like this is growing smaller in the US, but there are certainly times and places where tourists as well as citizens are at risk. Open air concerts, seasonal activities (lighting of a Christmas tree), Mardi Gras and spring break are only a few. There was an article published on Clever Traveler Companion. com that states the New York Police Department reports 3,000 cases per day in their metropolitan area.
While traveling to some countries in Europe are dangerous because of terrorists, many major cities also have skilled pickpockets who run rampant. During the 2012 Olympics London police reported 1700 incidents per day. And these were the ones that were reported. It is frightening to think how many were not.
England is not the only hot spot in Europe for purse snatchers and pickpockets. Thieves in Rome, Venice and other major cities in Italy have more than their fair share. It seems that the consensus is that if an American is traveling overseas, that American is rich and therefore is carrying a great deal of money as well as credit cards and more of a reason for wearing a travel money belt
Unfortunately when an incident does occur, tourists will find that their passports and other important personal information have been stolen as well. This is why the new video is so valuable. Potential travelers are given down-to-earth, everyday common sense ways to protect the documents and also be able to prove they had them even if they are stolen.
