6.3 Insurance against Theft 貨物失竊保險

M: During the last two years, there has been a great increase in goods stolen abroad.

W: If they steal the entire package, that would be theft. So they don't do that. Generally, thieves open the case and take part of the contents out. Then fill the case so that the gross weight will be the same.

M: If the goods are received in apparent good order and condition, the steamship company doesn’t have liability for pilferage. How do we protect ourselves?

W: The insurance policy protects us.

M: Is it true that products of high value such as watches, jewels and luxury clothing items are often subject to pilferage?

W: It's absolutely true in the United States that losses from pilferage have been limited to high valued goods. We must study more about packing.

M：過去兩年內，國外貨物盜竊很猖狂。

W：如果他們偷了整件的貨物就會構成偷竊行為，所以他們不會這么做。一般，竊賊會把箱子打開，把里面部分商品拿出來，然后再把箱子填滿，這樣貨物毛重就還是一樣的。

M：如果商品到達時外表上井然有序，狀況良好，船運公司就不會為失竊負責。這樣的話，我們該怎么保護自己呢？

W：海運保險政策可以保護我們。

M：高價值產品，比如手表、珠寶和高檔服裝是主要失竊對象，是真的嗎？

W：在美國失竊一般都是針對高價值產品，這確實是事實，所以我們必須多學習包裝知識。
