Neighbours who are not on holiday can also help, Versluis indicates. “Last night it was a porch house. While we were working there, a door of one of the neighbours opened, but then closed again without anything being said”, Versluis sounds surprised. It would help if the neighbours also remain vigilant if something happens in the neighbourhood at night. Because Versluis often cannot read from a customer’s face whether that person has bad intentions. “And they usually cannot identify themselves because residents often have their identity cards inside.”
