QUEZON CITY, Philippines – Malls are not the most crowded places at this time of the year as consumers tend to be more practical so they go to flea markets where they can haggle for a much lower price of gift items.

Meanwhile, several shoppers turn to online stores to avoid inconveniences.

But authorities remind shoppers to be aware of their belongings when rushing into the crowd in open markets as pick pockets, snatchers, hold uppers, and thieves are most active this season.

Philippine National Police (PNP) Director General Oscar Albayalde reminds consumers not to bring large sum of money to open markets.

“Huwag magdala ng sobrang laking halaga kung hindi lang din naman natin kailangan at (huwag) magsuot ng mamahaling alahas lalong lalo na kung pumupunta sa mga open markets para maiwasan po natin ang manakawan tayo ng mga personal belongings natin,” Albalyalde said.

To those who prefer shopping online, the PNP Chief advises consumers to transact with legitimate online sellers to avoid scammers.

“Tayo po ay mag-ingat doon sa manloloko lalo na sa Internet. Marami tayong na-experience na mga pagnanakaw through the Internet.Dapat highly reputable itong pinagkukunan natin ng goods o item sa internet. Huwag tayong magpaloko,” Albayalde said.

For any untoward incidents especially involving scammers and thieves, consumers may report to the nearest police station for immediate action. – Marje Pelayo (with reports from Lea Ylagan)
