Be careful: if you find a blank piece of paper in your mailbox, it could mean this
What should you do if you find a blank piece of paper? (3/4)
Remove it immediately – show that someone is home
Be attentive but discreet
Create the impression of presence : ask a neighbor to pick up the mail, open and close blinds, use timers on lighting
Contact the police (114 14 or 112 in an emergency) to report the sighting.
After such incidents, many people choose to install alarms with connected monitoring, which allows security personnel to intervene quickly and call the police if necessary.
Home insurance – are you really protected? (4/4)
An often overlooked legal detail is insurance coverage. If thieves gain entry without visible signs of break-in – such as through an open window or a hidden key – some insurance companies may deny coverage. This is sometimes called “lack of proven burglary . ”
Therefore, check your home insurance carefully, especially:
Theft deductible
Replacement for electronics and valuables
Requirements for locks, grilles or security doors
More customized insurance coverage can also cover locksmith costs or temporary security measures after a burglary attempt.
