Seabreeze management in SoCal is negligent endangering residence. Where is our money going? [Condo] [CA]

I’m posting this as a warning to other residents in any building managed by Sea Breeze because this has become a serious safety issue.
Last night, an unauthorized person followed a resident into the building, forced their way in behind her, and could not state what unit they were visiting. They were asking for water and did not appear to have any legitimate reason to be inside the building. There was no security present, so I had to confront the person and get them out myself.
This is not the first time something like this has happened.
Last summer, an unauthorized person pulled the fire alarm and I ran into him in the stairwell. That situation could have ended badly.
Another time last summer, an unauthorized person was sleeping in the lobby and appeared to be stealing a cart full of resident packages.
That is three separate incidents where unauthorized people were inside the building, and in every case there was no meaningful security response.
Residents are paying HOA fees and are supposed to have a safe, secure building. So where is the security? Where is that money going? Someone is going to get hurt if this keeps happening.
I’m posting this so other residents are aware, especially anyone entering any building managed by Sea Breeze. Please be careful, don’t let anyone tailgate in behind you, and report anything suspicious immediately.
Sea Breeze and building management need to explain what security measures are actually in place and what they are doing to prevent this from happening again. Seabreeze is negligent as they come. One of the only things my 50k a year in HOA covers is security. Where is the money going?
