They are in the crowd: Kalugan warned about pickpockets

They trade in markets and transport, in transitions and queues, where they act quickly and imperceptibly.

In order not to fall into the clutches of these criminals, Kalugan is urged to carry a bag through his chest and not to keep it open. It is better to choose a wallet or case with RFID-blocking - it does not miss the signal, and the card will not be considered contactless, the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs notes.

They also urged not to carry excess valuables, not to sleep in transport and not to be distracted.

“Beware of ‘accidental’ shocks and collisions. Pickpockets often work in pairs: one allegedly accidentally pushes a person or drops things, distracting attention, the second at this time climbs into the pocket and be careful with overly friendly strangers.

As reported by “MK in Kaluga” earlier, the Kaluga woman bought a non-existent ferret for 10 00 rubles.
