I was homeless in a college town for a period of time in the early 2000’s. His point about people being intoxicated is absolutely spot on. I wouldn’t even have to steal anything during spring/summer as people would get so drunk they’d drop/leave/forget items of value constantly. I once found a handful of wallets and almost a dozen purses/pocketbooks in one evening (well, early morning). Most people lack the awareness to recognize how they make themselves vulnerable. It’s not uncommon to see people who don’t look up from their phones for entire minutes in public while having headphones in, toting unsecured bags, etc. It’s good to see that he is educating people about being more aware of what’s happening around them and what to look for. I don’t advocate crime and I don’t make excuses for my past actions. I fucked up, it was my fault and I’ve worked hard for decades to rebalance the scales.

He had his hands in his motor bike jacket, but also slid into his pants pocket (you wouldn't realize it from looking at him, you'd think his hands were in his jacket but the vents go all the way through for air flow). He felt the guy reach into his pocket with his two fingers. He gripped the pickpockets fingers hard and dug into em with his thumb nail before the guy managed to get free. The pickpocket kept his cool and continued through the crowd. Because of it, my friend wasn't able to 100% say who had reached into his pocket by the time he turned around.

My favorite pickpocket story, was from a well known citys new year block party. I had on so many layers, and ended up putting my wallet in an inside winter vest pocket 3 layers down, behind 3 zippers We were walking through a massive crowd, and I had my hands in my pocket, I felt a hand touch mine. Everyone was moving, trying to get closer to the stage, or to go into a bar for a drink, and no one even looked at me. I had no idea who it was, and if my wallet was in that pocket, it would have been gone. After that, I try to keep my wallet under at least one extra layer in crowded places. Like a wrap skirt over pants with the wallet away from the opening. It's awkward to get to, but it's going to at least be more trouble than everyone around me, and a less appealing target

I’ve heard that street performers magic was actually designed for pickpockets to hone their craft without attracting negative attention in public. They would sometimes have their colleagues pick the crowd, but some of the more brazen ones would lure the target in with the trick and use the trick itself as the misdirection

[@johnnhoj6749]

Originally that was true, but for a street performer to be involved in stealing now seems a much riskier idea. By definition, they have a lot of eyes on them from different angles, apart from CCTV there are a lot of people recording every move on their phones, (which are also going to pick up others in the crowd) they are also easily spotted again another day by anyone who suspects them of being involved in stealing... I would have thought a pickpocket would be far better off being faceless in any random crowd and not attracting attention. The chances of them being recognised again is then pretty much zero and it's less likely that a victim would have any idea where they were robbed.

I witnessed an experienced pickpocketing team in action. It occurred in Manhattan in the 1970s on a city bus maybe on 5th Ave. The decoy was an elderly woman who was first in line to get off at the rear door. Just as the bus came to a halt at the bus stop, the decoy dropped some coins on the floor. This gave her an excuse to suddenly halt which besides creating a distraction caused the 4 or 5 people in line behind her to contact each other. After the lady picked up her coins, the line of passengers exited the bus. When one of the passengers was walking away, he exclaimed "my wallet has been stolen!" All this occurred right in front of me but I wasn't aware there was a crime in progress.

Shopping carts are common with idiotic women leaving bags in carts while browsing. Another is crowded buses. Once a Japanese man in suit was standing holding on to the handle, a black man quickly put his hand in man's suit pocket and handed wallet to another black guy behind him.
