She used two strategy on you, First she divert your attention. If you watch the movie Focus(Starring Will Smite) some common tactics of thieves are displayed. It's all psychological...If your left pocket is touched and all your attention shifts there then the thief will probably steal from your right pocket and you won't even notice a thing cause all your attention have diverted to the left pocket(Oh gosh i need to watch that movie again) Secondly she use the Soviet style of negotiation as explained in the book "You can negotiate anything" by Herb Cohen's. She used this tactic as you approach her by raising her voice so everyone will hear, Faking anger and intimidating you. If you have read that book you would have know how to stay on top of the game. Basically all you have to do is even lower your voice even more than your timid voice and people will see you as a much more responsible fellow instead of turning it to a shouting contest(I don't know if this work in Nigeria anyway, i have never tried it smiley.) Sorry for your loss anyway.

That's why it's good to move about with blade or a sharp object.

I feel your hand in my bag, I will make a scar on your body so deep once I catch your hand there. You will live to tell your children's children, angry

You had spoken to her politely hence she got away unchallenged, if you had used a typical lagos girl tone like"Wooz wobi!! Omo iya e be lyk say craze dey ur head abi,iyalaya e,emi ma ni, emi Berlyn,Omo Germany.. forget my fine face oooo! I go tear u with bottle if u no put my money for where u cmot am" She won't think twice before she handover the Money grin grin grin

Experience is the best teacher.

Since when my phone was snatched from me on my way back from Church around 12:45 AM at Ajao Estate, from one of these bike people, I have learnt not to be pressing my phone on the road till I get to my destination.

I was just making a call, suddenly, a bike man(Thief) came from behind and snatched it from me. I never see it coming.

That's what they used to wish me happy new year.
happy new year sir grin grin grin grin cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

i feel your pain...had an experience with pick pockets 3weeks back at alausa....boarded a tricycle enroute ojodu berger....not knowing that the guy seated next to me was one of such persons...i alighted at my destination and only realized my phone was gone some minutes after the tricycle had zoomed off.it was really annoying but i learnt my lessons anyway.Used to think that such things only happened at crowded bus stops or inside danfos and molues...obviously i was mistaken. just got a new phone...retrieved my lines and life goes on but with a little more cautiousness.

so guys i would like to share this with you all my experience with a pocket picker angry

the crowd was so much and they were only few vehicles at the the garage, it was late i had no choice so i board a very thight bus i had to manage the squeez, all through the journey getting to my bustop, as i was trying to alight from the bus, suddenly a lady stepped forward pressed herself against me as it was such a crowded area i tried to shrug her off ,but didnt mange to, An elder female about 40 suddenly hit me from behind i lossed balance i tried to glare at her but my attention was distracted obviously some one deeped hand into my bag i felt it i tried to force my self out, afterward i realized my money had gone shocked wow! I immediately ran towards the lady as she was really walking so fast... I stopped her, greeted her i thought it was something we could handle amicably not involving anyone else i spoke to her politely
'Ma i knew you deep your hand into my bag and made away with my money' awww she shouted 'e be like say u dey craze which money you see me? Ah she said some things in her language ' gosh i was confused i still couldnt believe my eyes before i could raise my head she started calling people explaining shi to them i have a tiny voice so my voice couldn't beat hers everyone paid more attention to her cos she speaks the language they all understood, omg i was dudumbfounded i spoke to few people who advised me to let her go since there was no evidence.. But i saw her even as at that moment the money was in her hand no one believed me she had crews who defended her i gat vexed and i left the place!! It was really a horrible experience ...

Lalasticlala abeg help move to fp angry





Can someone kindly translate this for me?

Lolnwhen dem jungle dem now people gone at because of how much.

These thieves deserve no mercy.



I remember in 95 when they picked my pocket the distance I had to trek because nobody agreed to help me despite my explanations.

Jesus. I trek that day I saw rainbows around the Sun. From Anthony to ojota then entered bus to ogba. Thank God for #10 in my pocket from there I trekked home.

Gut the sleep I sleep that day I didn't go our till the next week.
