pick pockets are every where now, every state in Nigeria. Dont think because you, or any of your family members or friends, have not been a victim in this case, then you neglect this important tips. Economy Harsh o, so you cant afford to loose your phones, money or wallet. That wallet especially, cos ur identification cards might be in it, ur ATM and other important documents.
lemme dont bore u with too much introductions, these tips keeps u alert at all time.

1. He keeps pretending to be saerching for money from his pocket to pay the conductor, in that process his magical fingers must have tampered with ur properties. they are very fast, so beware.

2.They usually have something they use to cover their laps for example a poly bag, a sweater( that kind heat dey catch me, i con comot am wink ), or some kinda bag sha, they use it to 1st cover wat they've stolen from you before putting it in the bag or sweater pocket diplomatically.

3. He tries to change his position anytime a passenger drops from the vehicle. going to explore more potential assets cool.

4. He might start talking about football, politics, or how GEJ is clueless(TANoids no vex o), Abi how buhari forged certificate, just to divert the attention of his prey. so beware.

5. In town, they normally board a bus and drop within a very short distance. If a passenger that sat near you does that, check your pocket o.

6. Appearance does not matter my brothers and sisters, even someone that suits up could be a pick pocket, so be vigilant.

7. They normally carry out their operations on weekend, when they know the business men and women carry money to the market, and others carry money for domestic shoppings at the market.

8. They are very fast. if you are fortunate enough to notice that your phoone or wallet is not more in ur pocket, b4 u shout yeeeeh shocked !!!!, dem don drop ur property for chair back.


Advice:
No matter how tight your jeans trouser is, they could remove anything from your pocket be it back or front, without you knowing. maybe na charm sha. i no know. so when you are about entering a bus, remove your phones and wallet and hold them in ur hands.
And make sure anybody sitting close to you put their hands were u can see them. grin

Reminds me of a funny video I saw on facebook recently where a pick pockets' hand was stuck in him victims pocket. It took a lot of begging from the suspect and those around before the victim released his hand. The victim initially wanted to walk away with the suspects hand in his pocket.

I guess you read Pick-pocketing at Yabatech or you are a retired pickpocket himself. Thanks for sharing your experience.

(op) What's wrong with you, why are u using only "He"? Picking pocket involves... "He" and "She". So stop making it look like a single gender thing. Women too picks pocket as well, there's is even unknowable u won't know when she pick pocket u join sef.undecided

For most of them mind wey dey read the topic now be say na only man dey pick pocket. undecided
