Scam to watch out for!!!

16 years ago

Watch out for this scam!

Police are urging visitors to the city center to be especially vigilant for a new gang operating a slick routine that is aimed at stealing from unwary persons.

They say that the gang usually comprises four members. While the three younger ones, all appearing to be cute and innocent, divert their "mark" (or intended target) with a show of friendliness and fun. The fourth - the eldest of this gang of criminals sneaks in from behind the person's back to expertly rifle undetected through his or her pockets and bags for any valuables being carried.

The attached picture taken from CCTV operating in the inner city shows the gang in operation.

Hey now, I do not have thug ducks & Ed only hijacks fruit and vegetables. Maybe it's more than eggs they are hiding in that nest out there.

Miss Jolana not only torments people on the forums she emails them to tell them she is tormenting them on the forums.
