Walking ATM

In the third world, and increasingly in places like Naples and Milano Stazione Centrale, a traveller is perceived as a walking ATM, with a wallet to be stolen and baksheesh to be extracted.

What is your strategy to deal with this?

In particular, I want to get from JNB to Pretoria Rovos Depot soon after I've been to Australia, and I understand that route goes through some pretty rough areas.

Thanks for any advice.
