Dear all

My title of be aware of fat eastern looking woman appeared to read Flat eastern woman slight spelling on my behalf

But it appears that this woman is actually a gipsy Romanian who pray on unsuspecting public on quite areas of the towns

So please be very aware of such places when walking alone and never allow anyone to suddenly approach you 

Always walk without your wallet and keep your mobile phone in secure pocket 

I lost a chain and pendant which was given to mr by my passed away mother 20 years ago!!

This could happen to you so be aware 

Thx

Dear Nicola

No she most certainly did not grab it off my neck she undone the chain in a matter of 30 seconds whilst she kept oh cuddling me and holding me tight!!!

I felt nothing except why this woman is doing this in the street and it was not after 15 minutes I left her that I realized what she had done 

This people are so professional and what she did was in a way amazing and I have never ever in my life had experience such an event in the middle of day light beside a main road 

Be very careful these people are watching you and will take your good possessions in a matter of seconds

Thx

I don’t know about you, but to be honest if anyone of any nationality that I didn’t know tried to hug me for no apparent reason I would avoid that more than any of the other advice?

I wouldn’t allow strangers to hug me and squeeze me tight at home so wouldn’t allow it anywhere else?

Post should read be careful of hugs from strangers

Yes

It appears they are a gang of highly skilled criminal I am sure mostly Romanian Gypsies who have targeted south of Costa Blanca last Sunday

As it was the same day around 12.15 am when it happened to me while I was out walking outside La Marina but I was not lucky enough to even notice what was happening till 10 minuted after when it was too late 

I will from now on be most weary of any woman walking towards me while walking
