A) Street crime remains a serious problem in Ukraine. The country continues to undergo significant
economic, political, and social transformation, and income differences have grown accordingly. As
a result, you and other foreign visitors may be perceived as wealthy and become easy targets for
criminals.
A commonly reported scam in Kyiv is the “wallet scam,” which involves a person dropping a wallet
or a packet of money near you. After you pick up the wallet/packet and attempt to give it back to
the individual who dropped it, the scam artist claims that the wallet is missing money and accuses
you of stealing it. The individual either threatens to call the police if you don’t pay or asks you to
show your wallet to prove that you did not take any money. When you show your wallet, the thief
grabs your money and flees.

I think, I will advice:

 At the airport, watch for your suitcase as it appears on the carousel. Don't hang back and
wait for the crowds to disperse - you might find that someone else has already taken your
bag in the meantime.

 Avoid changing money at airports, as thieves could be watching you

 Avoid 'seedier' areas of the cities you visit, especially at night

 Keep a photocopy of your passport and all other important documents in a safe place.

 beware of scams when visit a city,

 Don't make yourself an attractive target

 if you are mugged, don't fight back. It is better to lose a few dollars and a wristwatch that
get injured
