To avoid having your bag snatched, keep the following in mind:

- Use a small, compact bag and only carry necessary items;

- Limit the use of valuable handbags and shoulder bags.

- You should put the bag in the trunk or between you and the driver when riding a motorbike.

- If you bring a laptop or iPad, use a backpack with a front security lock.

If you are unfortunate enough to have your bag snatched while riding a motorbike, you should not try to struggle or chase after the thief because this can cause unfortunate accidents.

However, if your bag is snatched while walking, there is still a way to keep your bag. That is, hold on to the bag, squat down quickly to maintain your center of gravity. At that time, the thief will be surprised and quickly fall.
