Pickpockets

[Twoply 0]

Has anyone seen a good one in action? I've seen two now in my life. The first time, I was really young and didn't know what I was looking at until it was over. The second time he lifted a guy and was gone before we could do anything. You really have to hand it to them when it comes to balls, but karma does come around.

I saw them all the time but I've never been the victim of one.
I was riding the bus with a friend of mine about 3 weeks ago and he just bought a brand new Nikon Digital Camera - I saw some punk middle school kid fidgeting behind him and at the next bus stop he shot out of the bus like a cat in a dryer. He got 2 clips open and undid the velcro straps inside the bag and weaseled the camera out in about 1 stop - probably less than 2 minutes. I'm suprised he got the velcro undone because if not done with skill, you have a noisy theif or one who tugs on your bag. Lucky for us, the little guy was wearing his school uniform with his name printed on the front - my bud went to the middle school by our house and asked to find the kid, but they wouldn't help out 2 americans so we went to the police station and gave our report - I don't know how they did it but they gave us a call 2 days later with his Camera back.

The best place to spot a pickpocket is by the sign saying that they're operating in the area. They watch people pat their wallet then follow them and lift it.

but what do I know
