Travel security- Latest from Travelon and PACSAFE

On your next holiday make sure you protect yourself and your valuables. RFID scanners and pickpockets are everywhere, but you can make sure your protected.

PAC-SAFE anti theft travel bags and accessories are the perfect way to outsmart the thieves. In all their bags, PAC-SAFE incorporates wire mesh using their patented EXOMESH technology in the bottom and side panels of the bags which effectively stops your valuables falling out if you become victim to thieves who use bag slashing as a method to stealing your belongings. This is quite common in some European destinations especially in subway stations, train stations and other crowded tourist destinations.

The second main anti theft security feature that PAC-SAFE bags incorporate is each zippered pocket is lockable ensuring your valuables are kept safe and sound locked away, but still easily accessible when you want to get to them without the hassle of annoying padlocks and keys!

The third feature in PAC-SAFE travel security bags is the ability to anchor you bag to your chair or table whilst sitting having a coffee break, lunch or dinner or simply sitting on a park bench enjoying the international atmosphere! Bag snatching in these situations is a common ploy thieves use to snatch your belongings, but PAC-SAFE has thought of everything!

The newest technology thieves are using is RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) scanners. These scanners can steal people's information from credit cards and passports that have chip enabled technology inserted, the same technology as visa pay pass and our Australian passport smart gate technology.

There have been many reported instances of identity theft, as well as victims having their bank accounts emptied by thieves using thirds new hi tech scanners. The worrying thing is, victims don't even know they have been targeted until it's too late and their identity or bank accounts have been breached. These scanners can steal your information from up to 15 meters away, the thieves don't even need to touch or brush up against you! This new crime has not just been happening over seas, there have been many reported cases right here in Australia.

PAC-SAFE and TRAVELON have developed RFID safe passport and credit card sleeves, effectively blocking the signal whilst your cards or passports are safe and secure whilst in these sleeves and wallets. Just another way to protect your cash and identity whilst at home or traveling abroad.
