Paris is known for pickpockets, and being robbed can ruin a trip. Here one is circled at a ticket machine, right beside two people buying tickets. They look like any other passenger. Would you spot them before they reached your bag?
How the packaging works
Title
The capitals alone tell the whole story, AVOID, ROBBED, PICKPOCKETS, and 'How to' makes it about keeping your things safe.
Thumbnail
THIS IS A PICKPOCKET labels a real person in a real station, and the selfie with a thumb pointing back shows the presenter was right there.
Remix this
When your topic is a danger people can't easily spot, show a real example where it happens and circle it. Label it plainly. Let the title promise how to stay safe.
The transferable lesson
Circle the real threat in plain sight, then teach protection.
