To late the prick on the bike was gone in a flash towards night markets.
No idea what the man lost but at 6:30pm riverside is busy
This morning I have taken my bank cards out of my phone cover and removed my Australia sim. Will only carry them when needed. If some prick is going to snatch my phone that's all I'm losing.
It's going to get much worse in 2021.

Roger that good buddy. But my days of being rolled for my valuables are over. Since you wanted a piece of the action, I just thought I'd mention what worked for me in the past. OK, suit yourself and continue to stroll around Riverside at 11pm, but at that rate it could be quite some time before you enjoy the fun of being beaten for your valuables.armchairlawyer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 7:13 pmIt's your idea. I'll let you go first!Marty wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 5:01 pmWalk around Riverside drunk nearly to unconsciousness with plenty of valuables obviously on you at least at 11pm, preferably later. You'll get a taste of the fun.armchairlawyer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 4:18 pm Crikey! I'm missing all the fun, I walk on Riverside daily at various hours up to 11pm and nothing bad happens.

Re: Take care walking around
You just need your head to remember the number, I never take my phone with me, why? For using social media? playing games? Enough to encounter outside, always exciting, every day,whatwat wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 10:14 pmHow do you remember the code if no phone?alexvanlaar wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 9:52 pmI love ABA E-cash, you only need your head when you're going to the ATM, no card or phone to snatch...!Doc67 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 20, 2020 10:37 amI never take my bank cards out.

Also beware using Smart shop on st13 late at night.
Saw guy leave the shop to get into a tuk tuk and a hooker went for his back pocket to which he gently pushed her away.
Then out of nowhere some small pump turned up and violently smashed him in the face.
Noticed the hooker pick pocket gang only turned up when there was no security guard on the door of the shop.

Re: Take care walking around
It’s sad to say, but if you are out after 8pm you are a walking target. I barely visit Riverside any more, though I have had a few all nighters that ended there in the past 6 months or so. 2 friends who ended up straying from the pack got their bags snatched, so the jaos are most definitely on the prowl.
I live in TTP now and have seen a few bag snatched around 6-7pm in the past month so it doesn’t really matter where you are at.
Not to say this wasn’t happening before, but people are more desperate, brazen, most likely both.
Stay safe and be generous if/when you can. A lot are suffering!
