No Phones Near Windows

Snatchers are abundant on the Dhaka streets and smartphones are the targets of snatchers, specially while you're stuck in traffic.

If you have the window seat in a bus and the window is open, avoid talking on your phone. If you must, use the ear that is not exposed towards the road, and hold on to your phone tightly.

The same applies if you are in a car. Moreover, in a car, don't browse your phone near an open window, even if the phone is on your lap.

Also avoid taking selfies or extending your hand out of the window for taking a snap. When you're inside a CNG, take care not to hold your phone close to your face or the sides as snatchers tend to slit the sides of the covers and snatch the phone through it.
