Pickpockets on bath bus

Look out for this couple on bat bus traveling between Jomtien and Pattaya:
A poorly dressed and fairly runned down ladyboy (usually appearing in short trousers (Thai meaning = long trousers) and medium sized hair with several hair clips, accomplished and a better looking Thai women wearing a dress.

This couple usually stands in Jomtien near Bamboo bar checking busses with mostly older foreigners turning from Jomtien Beach road towards Pattaya. There are only interested in bath busses with several passengers.

The ladyboy picks pockets from next sitting passengers and passes there stolen property to the accomplice - or in case the theft is noticed, the goods drops to the floor. I never noticed the women stealing. They usually leave bath bus together just close to Bali Hai or sometimes near VC Hotel and turning the same route back.

I see this couple for several years now using the same trick. Both know that I know there tricks and as soon as they are spotting me, both are leave the bath bus quickly тАУ just hopping onto the next one.

Just watch out for this tricky pair and talk openly about them as soon as you notice them. It seams that the police is well aware of this action but cannot do much since in case of the ladyboy is getting snapped, the Thai women will testify false.

Passengers do usually not recognize that this couple is working hand in hand since they do not talk much together. I never noticed them exchanging any words.

Yep, happened to me. The ladyboy in the shorts was the one. She sat next to me, put her shoulderbag on my knee and undid the velcro on the side pocket of my shorts. She got on the bus with a couple of others.

"Bath bus"?

Is it anything like Jinks's much bragged-about A380?

Right! And ALL the OLD QUEENS use them!

Wear jeans or jean shorts, put your wallet in your front pocket, and problem solved!

Really, if you're a white guy, and traveling to a poorer country, then it's kinda common sense someone is going to eye you up. Use a bit of common sense rules, and you're fine.

I have a couple of pairs of shorts which have velcro pocket fasteners. I don't think it's possible to unsnap velcro either quietly or with little or no detectable pressure. I think my front zipper would be far easier.
When she put her shoulder bag on your knee, did that seem a bit odd to you?

And you didnt say if she was able to get away with it.What did she get? That would also make me wonder when she put the hand bag on my leg.I dont care how crowded the bus got. The only time someone attempted to pick pocket me was when I had just arrived in Pattaya. It was a long flight and I was dieing for sex.It was early afternoon,so where do I go? Montys pool.A cute guy smiled at me,I verify hes 18 and go into the mens toilet,I know kinda sleazy.Id rather have a room but not much time. As he unzips me and starts making my eyes roll into the back of my head,I feel his hand going into my front pocket. I shoo him away and he continues. Then,when I turn him around and play with his bottom I shot a load hitting the opposite wall. It was a shot that Peter North would have been proud of,only I wasnt making a porno. Proving how clean Thais are,he cleaned up the mess after seeming amazed at the trajectory of the climax. I tipped him well and we were both happy.His hand going into my pocket as forgotten as my home country.

Oh yessssтАж.
Great! My sweet supervisor is getting now some practice with Works and similar software тАУ and found that Baht should be better converted in bathтАж and I havenтАЩt noticed his alterations.

I shall tell him and will have some fun with it too.

I hope youтАЩve had a good laugh with it too. ..

Would this be the pair, where the actual pickpocket has an extremely large white purse/bag?

If so, I have come across them on 2 occasions. One time with my former boss and her husband, while I actually watched them attempt to pick his pockets. I just spoke loudly to my boss, that these were notorious pickpockets and they were trying to get a hand in a pocket.

They use the roads they know very well, with each pothole that is driven over, they ease their way closer into range to strike at their target. I believe the baht bus drivers are in on this, as when they are found out, they press the button to get off immediately and walk away from the baht bus rather quickly. I know a lot of baht bus drivers, and they would literally chase someone down a few blocks to get the money for the fare, if someone attempted to walk away from them.

Whenever on a baht bus, I have an external cell phone pouch, I actually take my phone out and hold it in my hands, while leaning my arms against my pockets, almost looking like I am just lounging in the baht bus, whenever I am concerned.

You run a transport company! What are you doing on a baht bus?
