Money and Shopping in Stay safe
In order to buy anything, you'll need money, which may make you a target for theft. To reduce your risks:
As much as possible, try to avoid looking like someone that a thief would target (remember, think like a criminal). To that end, don't flash wads of cash, or wear or carry expensive jewelery or valuables (keep those in the hotel safe).
Follow local advice as to safe areas.
Have copies of the information/photo page of your passport. Leave your passport in the hotel safe if that is available and permitted.
Have an additional credit card and some cash separate from your wallet. Split everything up in such a way that if one wallet gets stolen you can still enjoy the trip.
Be aware of common scams. These are designed to get your money or business from you under false pretenses. They fall into three categories: overcharging you, deceiving you or coercing you into paying for a service you don't want, and outright theft.
Take steps to protect yourself against pickpockets, which are a hazard in many tourist destinations.
