OP is so on point that I really dont blame those accusing him of being a culprit. Never knew how I lost money that fateful day until now. Just knew that I checked the money, board a taxi, alighted and the money was gone. Even then I knew, albeit late, the character who sat beside me was definitely the one who stole my money. Was very lucky because if he had been on my other side, my iphone 5 would have gone instead of the measly three thousand the poverty-ridden dunce took.

I was going to quote this too....sounds like a scene from a movie..Lol.

But OP's points are valid. I had a guy pick me once, unfortunately for him I was listening to music via my earphones so I was startled when the music went off. All I could see was the other end of my earphone hanging loose then I pounced on the guy beside me. We were seated on the last row in the bus so nobody else could have reached me, but I was rather late. His partner had dropped at the next bus stop with my phone but after several brushing I got my phone back.

OP sometimes they come in two's. Be weary of fully grown adults that insist on lapping each other in the bus too.....ensure the put their hands where you can see em too... grin

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


share ur personal experiences.......... mine coming soon............

100 percent.

Number 6 is 120 percent.

The day one pick pocket was caught in Ikeja, Lagos, my mouth was wide open for 10 mins!

Smooth shaved. Clean designer clothes. Jewelry. Perfumed. Like, it would be the least person you would have suspected to steal anything.

He was caught with 3000 naira. He actually stole the money from an agbero loading a shoprite bus.

So shocking.

I was once a victim. I noticed the dude was smart, very ugly and nervous cos he wiped his face with handkerchief every 10second interval.
He succeeded in taken away my Nokia phone in a commercial bus.
He disappeared at the next available bus stop.
