This reminds me of the large road signs I've seen that warn against distracted driving

You hungry for asphalt?

It's zero calories!

This is sort of a real thing: in touristy areas they sometimes have signs warning of pickpockets, which causes people to check their wallet location and alerts the pickpockets where the wallet is for easier snatching.

That's why you gotta do a full pat down to throw them off.

Pretend your wallet is missing. Start freaking out and accusing others around you of stealing jt.
No sense trying to pickpocket the guy with no wallet

Also makes the actual pickpockets wonder if someone is working the area and better than them, since they didn't see it happen.

I just do the macarena every time I see the sign.
MrShankles@reddthat.com · 4 pts · 64d
Lmao that visual made me actually chuckle
Crozekiel@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 64d
Hahah... Wait, why were you watching?? Are you a pickpocket?
JasonDJ@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 64d
Wrist watch...wedding band...
Nothing in my hands...nothing up my sleeves...
Headphones, cap...
Phone...keys...wallet...empty....
(Casually adjust wedgie hoping nobody notices)
HEY MACARENA.

What do you do if you're naked, though?
helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 64d
Start digging. Make sure you clearly pull out a few hundreds and put them back in.
JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 64d
I'd assume in that case one would be using their prison wallet.

Just stick your hands between your buttocks. That's nature's pocket.
wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 64d
Want to pickpocket me? 😏

4D chess: the pickpockets put up the warning signs.

Fellow fish listener or do you just also happen to know that fact?
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 64d
Fish listener? Like Aquaman?

some people strapped thier wallet to a pouch under thier shirt, so its likely wont get snatched if its close to your skin.

If only they would do that with my virginity....

Oh no step-burglar, I'm stuck

Should have messy scotch tape, slightly tilted, maybe a corner peeled off
