SECTION XIX — Embassy / Consular Guidance
Before travel, check your country's official foreign ministry or embassy website for emergency assistance information.
Scam Patterns
- Fake Police Shakedown. Plain-clothes individuals claiming to be undercover police stop tourists near Glodok or Jalan Jaksa, demanding to inspect passports and wallets for counterfeit currency checks. The interaction is designed to identify where cash is kept or to extract a bribe. Tip: Real Indonesian police wear uniforms with visible ID, so decline to hand over your wallet and offer to accompany them to the nearest police station.
- Blok M Entertainment District Drink Spiking. In bars and nightlife venues around the Blok M area in South Jakarta, incidents of drink spiking have been reported, typically targeting tourists who accept drinks from strangers. Victims wake up in unfamiliar locations with valuables missing. Tip: Never accept drinks from strangers, keep your drink in hand at all times, and never leave it unattended.
SECTION XXI — Digital Security
- Use a VPN on public Wi-Fi.
- Enable 2FA on email, banking, and travel accounts.
- Back up document scans to a private cloud and a paper copy stored separately.
- Avoid unknown USB ports and charging stations.
- Keep automatic OS updates on; enable remote-wipe on your phone.
SECTION XXII — Money Safety
- Carry a backup payment card stored separately from your wallet.
- Use bank-lobby ATMs in daylight; cover the keypad.
- Keep a small amount of local cash for emergencies.
- Watch for skimmers and shoulder-surfers around ATMs and payment terminals.
- Use card-tap for transit and payments where possible to limit card-present exposure.
