Easy targets in Pickpockets
A skilled pickpocket can hit almost any pocket, but all pickpockets prefer easy targets.
Ridiculously easy targets are away from the body where the victim will not feel a thief's touch:
Open bags, especially shopping bags with an interesting store label
Outside pockets of a backpack or shoulder bag
A bag or pack left away from you or in an adjoining booth while at a restaurant, internet cafe, etc.
Other easy targets are pockets that are easy to get at and out of the victim's field of vision:
Rear or thigh pocket of trousers
Outside pockets on a man's jacket or other loose-fitting outer garment
Anything hanging on your belt, such as a cell phone or fanny pack
Do not carry your wallet, phone, or other valuables in any of these places.
