Undercover in a stolen phone market in India
(Karl Rock) June 22, 2023. MUMBAI (Bombay), India: Karl went undercover in a stolen cellphone market in India. This is where stolen phones might end up. Pickpocket gangs steal them and fence them here, along with old phones from electronic recyclers. Fake Chinese iPhones are sold here, too. Avoid shopping at these black markets. And avoid pickpockets with these practical tips:
Stay vigilant and be aware of surroundings. Pay attention to the people around. Stay alert in crowded areas, public transportation, tourist spots, and busy streets.
Keep all valuables hidden: Avoid displaying valuable items such as expensive jewelry, cash, and flashy electronic devices. Put them in a secure place like a money belt, hidden pocket, or bag close to the body. Or leave them behind hidden in a hotel room. More
