Just caught a bloke going through my elderly neighbor's bins. When I asked what he was doing he said hesitantly that he was looking for shoes. I told him he should ask first. Then saw him further down the road going through someone else's bins. They clocked him and he disappeared. Not sure if he was up to no good but be careful when disposing of personal info.
Where was this? There's a bloke who I regularly see going through bins in houses/flats facing the rye,between Barry rd and the crossroads. Looks like hes realm keen on recycling. I see him picking leaves out of gravel too. Same guy, or another *character*.
I had my identity stolen earlier in the year. Bank accounts, credit cards, personal loans and catalogue accounts were taken out in my name. I'm still trying to sort it out now and my credit rating is destroyed as a result. I really would urge everyone to shread anything with any personal information on before putting it in the bin.
I had someone called "Micheal Jackson" ... yes, Micheal Jackson! with an outstanding balance on a Marisota catalogue. I had to explain that Micheal Jackson didn't live at my house, if he did, I would have no objection to his collection frocks, but that I wasn't liable for his debt.

I know this is a old thread but i had 2 women going through the bins this afternoon on ivanhoe Road, I personally don't give a toss if they are looking for clothes etc but they keep ripping the bags open in the green bin and it's bloody stinks as well as attracting flys in the heat! Its stopped for a while and now they are back, it's starting to get on my t*ts! Anyone know what they are actually looking for? Sorry to bring this up again but it's bloody jaring!!!

    • Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4
    • Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.
    • Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
    • Neighbourhood police, they often get called in for neighbourhood 'disputes', although if you have been Southwark ASBU perhaps you have already explored this
