In this situation I think it would be a-ok to have said "Ma'am, I'm a police officer so I feel I should let you know that there's been a lot of purse snatchings from carts and all, so you might want to pay attention to your cart just to be safe."
I don't usually give advice to random people and I'm highly annoyed when people feel compelled to help me out when I don't want or need their advice.
