Prague can generally be considered a safe and modern city. But crime and corruption is still wide spread in some places. If you aim at exploring the nightlife and the erotic life of the city, you just have to be a bit more careful.
Pickpockets are very skillful, and they mostly gather in the central tourist area (crowded areas) and on trams and subways. Street prostitution should be avoided for several reasons. Also avoid strip clubs and casinos which are not reviewed and well known. Definetely do not buy lady drinks at any club! They may be grossly over-priced, and this problem is pan-european.
One other thing to avoid is less reputable taxi companies. Try to order a cab by phone, and ask the operator for the price. Avoid stopping a cab on the street. I recommend AAA-taxi, the biggest taxi company in the city. Drivers sometimes want to drive you to a club they recommend. Do not fall for that, they got commission from the club. If you visit restaurants, read reviews first or go to Mc Donalds ;-)
If you are alone late at night, travel by taxi, don't get too drunk, and stay away from at least heavy drugs!
Least but not last: read reviews of the places you intend to visit, and follow the advice on this blog. Then it is very likely you will have a good time.
Wear a condome!
