Well, they could probably kill, cripple, or maim you now, or they might come by your house later.... In military terms, deal with the 5 meter threat before engaging the 15 meter threat.
However, this does bring up the possible tactic of carrying a throwdown wallet, that doesn't have a real ID, credit cards, or anything linking to your home or person. Some cash and a fake credit card... I'd say fake ID, but that might not be legally kosher.
Throwdown wallets or money-clips have been recommended in various overseas travel security briefings as things people might want in higher crime areas.
I don't have one myself, but it's not a bad idea.
