A huge electronic sign warning residents to 'lock their homes' and be 'careful of home security' has been erected on the roadside in one of Melbourne's ritziest suburbs.
The sign, in Brighton, is near Bec Judd's $7million mansion and comes after the AFL WAG raged the area was under siege from gangs.
Roadside warnings, put up by Bayside Council, now tell residents to 'remember to lock your car and house' and 'be mindful of home security' after a series of break-ins in the area's multimillion dollar homes.
Ms Judd recently doubled down on her furious claim that Melbourne's elite suburbs are dangerous after a man's luxury Mercedes was stolen with his pet dog still inside.
After complaining last May that she felt unsafe in her $7.3million Brighton mansion, Judd took to Instagram again in February to slam the Victorian government.

Her tirade came after Richard Buxton, from the same swanky suburb, revealed his black Mercedes station wagon was stolen while he was buying bread and milk at a local supermarket.
Mr Buxton said he had only been in the store a few minutes when two men jumped in his car and drove off at speed - with his two-year-old golden cavoodle Moe inside.
Two men believed to be linked to the theft were later arrested after fleeing on foot when they crashed a white BMW about 11.45am.

There was initially no sign of the dog but Victoria Police said he was eventually reunited with his family a few hours later.
Before their emotional reunion, Mr Buxton's wife Terry told told 7News it was like a 'bad dream'.
'I love him to the moon and back. I can't believe this has happened,' she said.
'I just hope somebody's out there and will find him and bring him back to me, I don't care about the car.'
Bayside Council have been approached for comment.
Judd, who is married to West Coast and Carlton legend Chris Judd, also shared the story of another Brighton woman who revealed how her house was almost robbed.
'We had two intruders in our garage at 7.30am this morning attempting to steal our car. They were wearing high vis, Covid masks and sunglasses,' the woman wrote in a post shared by Judd on Instagram.
