Yikes! This could happen in your hometown!!
Watch out for this scam. Police are urging visitors to the? Salt Lake area
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, one adult and three cute little ones.
While the three younger ones, all appearing sweet and innocent, divert their
"mark" (or intended target) with a show of friendliness and fun, the
fourth - the eldest - sneaks in from behind the person's back to expertly rifle
undetected through his / her pockets and bags for any valuables being
carried. The attached picture (under more infotaken from CCTV operating in the inner city shows the gang in operation.
