Alert to all residents

Dear All

A new concept of stealing is happening around the town. When ladies are going for a walk alone, specially senior citizens, they are targeted by group of people telling them that few metres away a chain snatching event happened and hence they advice them to take out their jewels and place it in a paper or cover. They only will help giving them a paper or a cover. In between a man comes that way, the same is told him and he immediately removes his chain and parcels in the paper and takes it away. For us it will look like something serious and we might try to do the same but for them its like a demo.

Yesterday my mother was about to be a victim. Somehow she managed to escape from their net. This incident happened at around 9:00am opposite to Vignan nagar bus stand though there were much people around. We were confused about this incident whether its true but today (4th Nov) Times of India page 3 its mentioned that the same type of incidents occurred in other parts of Bangalore and people have lost their valuables. Please be careful and inform those around you also about this and alert them to be cautious.
