When travelers visit big cities they are told to avoid certain sketchy areas to prevent being the victims of crime – but in some of the most popular cities around the world, pickpocketing has become such a common art it occurs anywhere, at any time, and in broad daylight. Thai tourists Nina Spencer and her friend Toi learned this lesson the hard way on a trip to London.
The pair were walking through Cambridge Circus, filming themselves on a selfie stick as they toured the famous capital, when, in what seemed like a split second, they were robbed. After they had crossed the road, Toi looked inside her Louis Vuitton handbag and noticed her designer purse containing £400 in cash and her credit cards were missing. Distraught Toi and Nina played back at their video footage from the day and were shocked at what they found.

“Footage shows how one glamorous woman in black jumper and with black sunglasses on her head looked over Nina’s shoulder while a second woman, in black leather jacket and holding a red smartphone, eyed her friend’s handbag,” stated Viral Press.
“At the same time, the woman in sunglasses is seen in the video using a large black shopping bag to shield the thief’s hand”
“The pickpocket then dips her hand into Toi’s bag and pulls out the purse.”
“The two women are then joined by a third accomplice in sunglasses and holding an orange jacket who walks round the back of them to quickly receive the stolen purse under the coat.”
“All three women then quickly walk away together in a different direction.”
“Devastated Nina said she reported the theft to police but said they have not had the wallet returned.”
