A German guy spotted one of the little fuckers knock my wallet off the table and cover it with sand. When I grabbed one by the arm, they said ' I call the police!" My wife took out her phone and started calling them, little bastard burst into tears, kept him on a string for a while and let him go. Tbf, he came back the next day and thanked us for not calling them, but we were holding our stuff very tightly nonetheless

Leaving your wallet in the open in the lovely town of Sihanoukville is not such a good idea.....

Yeah, I had taken it out to pay for food that was brought to us at the same time.

I was thinking of getting one with a metallic spine, putting in some fake green, and wiring it to the mains with a buried cable...

Biker wallet with chain. Never had a problem. (Also keeps you from losing your wallet when riding.)

I am no biker but yes, I have used wallets with a chain for the last 20 years. Lots of pick-pockets when I first went to Vietnam.

'Bout time. This has been a problem for fourty-fucking-forevers. They like to surround you while a couple in the back open your bag. It happened to me a dozen years ago, but I spun around before they could grab anything.

Kids tried to pickpocket me in Pattaya, I found it amusing & was interested to know how they did it, good experience.
I politely turned around & put my hand up to the woman who was trying to distract me & she just left, didn't even see the kids just felt their little hands going for each side. I never carry a wallet or keep all my money in one pocket.

i have a big nike bum bag thing, keep all my shit in it when going down the beach, use it like a shoulder bag, there have been times ive left my phone/wallet out, but im friends with the vast majority of the kids on the beach an they will often tell me off when im not being careful, i do know that some of them go around pinching though and i try lecturing them about it (im sure in one ear and out the other) when i do have a big group of them crowded round me talking to me i always make sure i know where my bag is, but most come speak with me everday and have a 30min break from working, some of them kids are down the beach from 9am until gone 11pm, sad really
