Northern Suburbs Saint-Denis: High-Risk Area

It belongs to the notorious 93 departments, known as the Fourth World, everywhere It's low-rent housing, and unemployed North African and Arab immigrants roam the streets.

Belongs to the high-risk area of ??Paristan.

This is an open robbery, everything is robbed. Even delivery boys are being robbed of food and electric vehicles.

It’s not just robbery, there may be life safety and riots in the hardest-hit areas. Even school teachers are often beaten by groups.

1) Paris Gare du Nord (Garedu Nord), Paris Gare du Nord: a high-risk area, a black and Arab gathering area, and there have been exchanges of fire;

2) Paris Est Station: it is also quite chaotic here of. Not far from the Gare du Nord, this area is very chaotic;

3) Gare de Lyon: Robbery;

2) Belleville, Xinhua District: There are many prostitutes and hooligans, often Chinese people were attacked and shootings occurred.

4) The 10th, 19th and 20th arrondissements: located in the northeast corner of Paris. If there is no special reason, try to avoid going to these areas. North Railway Station and East Railway Station are in District 10.

5) Suburban District 13: The place in the movie "The Block".

Avoid the above high-risk areas. Other petty thefts are nothing. As long as you keep an eye on your phone and bag, there won't be much of a problem. Thieves and robbers are mainly concentrated in famous tourist spots frequented by tourists. There are police patrols, and robbery can't stop them.

1) Around Montmartre: black people wear red ropes, etc. And there are countless thieves at night;

2) Moulin Rouge: the famous red light district, with many religions, Jiuxi;

3) Famous attractions such as the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre, with piles of thieves and liars;

Of course, not all places in Paris have been robbed, but there are still many places where the overall security is relatively good and it feels very quiet and leisurely.

When traveling to Paris, when looking for hotels, try to find places with relatively good security.

1) Left Bank, Districts 5-7: On the left side of the Seine River, there are many cafes and schools here, with a strong literary and artistic atmosphere.

2) ChteletlesHalles: Although it is a hub station, the security is pretty good.

3) District 13 in the city: Located on the left side of the Seine River, there are many Chinese people and many new buildings. This 13th arrondissement is not the 13th arrondissement in the suburbs of Paris.

4) The 15th and 16th arrondissements of the city: where the middle class of Paris live. But some refugees were resettled last year, and most were evacuated amid strong protests from local people.

Paris Stealing and Robbery

Is Paris Stan in chaos? I see. Reacho believes Paris is a safer place as long as you take safety precautions.

The most is stealing and cheating. Money is a trivial thing compared to life. What's really bad about policing is that in some third world countries human trafficking, organ harvesting, disappearances, stabbings and shootings are real dangers.

Paris Stan’s various fancy ways of stealing, robbing, and deceiving will dazzle you. Come on, let's learn.

After 11 o'clock in the evening, it is the happy hour of Paris Stan robbery. Robbery incidents often occur in broad daylight near tourist attractions with chaotic crowds. Don’t worry too much, as long as your wealth is not exposed, no one will be watching you.

1) Subway: Robbery seconds before closing.

An old trick in Paris subway robberies: you sit on the subway and play with your phone. A few seconds before the subway closes, someone suddenly snatches your phone and rushes out the door. By the time you react, the subway door has just closed.

The focus of this kind of robbery is the people sitting in the seats, but the reaction after being robbed is not so fast. The robbery happened 3 or 5 seconds before the subway closed.

So if you have nothing to do, don’t play with your mobile phone in the subway, otherwise your bag will collapse. You need to be alert in the seconds before the subway closes.

2) Grabbing mobile phones on the street

Snatching mobile phones in the subway is nothing new. Someone wanted to use it on the street. Try not to take out your phone when there are too many people in the chaos, even if the headphone cable is not exposed.

A French friend called me and asked me what I was doing. I said walking down the street. The other party was so scared that I hung up the phone and put the phone away.

3) Night robbery

Do not take a plane arriving in Paris in the early morning. After 12 pm, buses and cars

Try not to go out after 11 pm. If you want to see the night view of Paris, try to go in a group and don’t go to remote alleys.

4) Robbery to show off wealth

There is nothing much to say about this category. The iPhone on the left and the LV bag on the right are both dressed in porphyrin, telling others: I have a lot of cash and my bag is very valuable. Come and rob me.

When traveling abroad, try to be as low-key as possible.

5)Holiday robbery

Be especially careful during the holidays in Paris. For example, don’t hang out outside on New Year’s Eve.

Not only are they easily robbed, but they can also be hit by beer bottles flying in for no apparent reason. Girls get greased by drunkards all over the street, and all kinds of messy things.

Finally, Reacho reminds everyone: In Paris, when faced with violent robbery, Stan really gave money. Many of them are drug addicts. Desperate for money, they lose their minds. It's easy to get tangled up with them and lose control.

1) Strike up a conversation

Don’t talk to anyone who strikes up a conversation for no reason, including children. These thieves are gangs. One person talks to you and distracts you, while the other person steals.

2) Get your signature

Asking for your signature is an old trick used by Parisians to steal. I've been using it since I first went to Paris eight years ago, and I still use it for a long time.

Let us recognize these people. They were the gang who stole from me in front of the Arc de Triomphe. Several students gathered around and had them sign autographs in support of some non-profit organizations. One person blocked my view with an autograph book, and then someone else zipped up the bag.

2)Cafes and restaurants

When sitting down to eat or drink coffee, do not put your bag on the back of the chair. This is not China. Your personal belongings, bag and cell phone, must not leave your sight. Countless fake police officers scam people in Paris every day

Tip 1: Check if you have enough money to travel.

The fake policeman stops you, takes out your ID, flashes it in front of your face, says he is a policeman, and asks you which country you are from.

Then check your wallet to see if you have enough money to support your trip in France.

Tip 2: Check whether you have participated in Du trading.

You are walking on the road, and suddenly someone strikes up a conversation with you. It's puzzling.

After the other party left, the police appeared, stopped you, and said that the person you just talked to was an Adu drug dealer. They suspected that you had a deal with him and wanted to check your wallet.

No matter what tricks they use, the purpose of the fake police officer is to make you take out your wallet.

1) Hand over your wallet obediently. If you don’t have enough money, you will be threatened and your visa will be canceled if you suspect that you do not have enough funds to support the trip.

When you are panicking, the fake policeman will comfort you: Don’t worry, I will take your passport and check your visa carefully. If all the application materials are correct, I will not cancel your visa. Then, the fake police confiscated your passport and asked you to go to the XX police station to get it back tomorrow.

This move is cruel. From now on, your passport will never be returned. They will sell it to Asians in France who will use your passport to engage in illegal activities. A passport can be sold for several hundred euros.

2) If your wallet is full, congratulations, you have been caught, and there will definitely be a few bills missing from your wallet. The fake police officer will keep talking to you, scaring you, and distracting you from getting your wallet back and counting your money.

Fraud Alert

Check whether you have enough funds to support your trip. Border inspection officers only have the qualifications and authority to enter the country through customs.

You are not a police visa officer, so you are not qualified to cancel your visa; you are not a border inspection officer, and you are not qualified to decide whether you can come.
