I have been informed about techniques to steal cellular phones in the
center of Madrid. The thieves are using a technique not very known by
the citizens. My friend was one of the victims of these robberies. The thieves
robbed her of an iPhone. Police and employees of the establishments nearby
confirmed that these robberies are a regular occurrence everyday.
The technique that these thieves
use is, as follows; The thief, with a newspaper or a note in his hand
approaches their targets at there tables, and lament about their poor economic
situation. The thief then distract the victim by putting the newspaper or note
over their belongings so that it is not visible to them anymore. In that moment
the thieves steal the victims belongings, while the victim is totally unaware
of what is happening. The victim only realises what has happened once he/she
start looking for his/her property.
I believe there is a way of
preventing these thefts, and it is mainly by informing the public. I do not
wish to be an alarmist, but have to warn you of new stealing methods being used
frequently by the thieves these days.
For this reason, always keep your
belongings close on you and don’t leave them on the tables of any establishment.
If you link this post or recommend
it in forums you will be helping people not to fall victim of these
crimes... We
all together should avoid thiefs stealing cellular phones.
