    Never flaunt your wealth (jewellery) in public nor disclose personal secrets..... (possession) to anyone.... Advisable to keep your precious jewelry, cash, and vital documents, in a bank locker !!! Thieves in sheep clothing, are constantly prowling to defraud, you.... Better play safe then be sorry later !!!!!!!
