naturalwaves:

To start with, there is nothing like " a pocket picker". I do not want to start pointing out the numerous blunders in this post of yours. We all make mistakes but these ones you have here are not the usual types one can overlook. Honestly, if you dedicate half of the time you spend here on nairaland to doing other meaningful things like studying, you would be far better off. This writeup is terrible!

Idrismusty97:
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 .) Sorry for your loss anyway.

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 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 ...

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

I can remember vividly my first pick pocket experience it was during summer of 2014. We were on holiday in Barcelona due to the fact i could not speak Spanish, I got lost and decided to ask a guy passing by I was glad the guy could speak a little English. He directed me back to my route and we shook hands and he gave me a path on the back... 5 mins later I discovered my wristwatch was not on my hand and my backpack was wide open he stole my tourist passport and the money in my backpack.
Pickpockets in Barcelona are experts how he stole my wristwatch from my hand still baffles me

Kid, this is one of the many reasons why you should stay in school and get your education, it's very important.
In real life, this girl would be forming but in reality, she can't construct a readable English essay.
