Womans wallet stolen at Carrefour Villagio

ClimbHigh
By ClimbHigh

Today I was looking at the laptops at Carrefour and noticed some commotion near the entrance. An American woman explaining very clearly to a group of security guards what happened. I walked up to her and said, I have heard of wallet thefts being discussed in QatarLiving.com recently and she said "Well now it just happened to me!" They were heading towards the security room and I'm sure they are going to comb through the surveillance footage and track her footage to see if they can gain any clues.

If the victim reads this thread, please post about what happened and if the wallet was returned without the money etc..

The bottom line is that there will always be "criminals" in ANY society. It's up to us as individuals to ensure that we take steps to protect ourselves from petty crimes such as car theft, wallet / purse loss etc etc

you are so right tallg,...even if a place is as safe as they claim to be, it's better to always be on guard when it comes to personal belongings... better to be safe than sorry...

It's the fact that people behaved like that 5-6 years ago that has contributed to the crime now. Why would you ever leave your car unlocked or your bag unattended? You're just inviting trouble.

Welcome to the new Qatar, welcome to the new riff raff that has joined the people in this country. I remember when I came here 5-6 years back it was really safe and you could even leave your car unlocked with mobile, cash and laptop in there. Now I can see qatar following the Jones's, Guns on the streets, car theft, mobile theft, purses being stolen.

Welcome to the new world order.

csi @ labda's first comment

I blame the people who just "left their stuff lying around". That's bound to encourage the thieves.

Just because somewhere is described as safe isn't an excuse for stupidity.

hmm, i remember now, where i heard it... when i came here last april. i had to go to the WC back at the airport and the security guy told me to just leave my trolley in the passengers waiting area coz nobody's gonna take it...

it used to be like that, mjamille. 10 years ago.

By mjamille28• 15 Sep 2008 17:18
mjamille28

i used to hear people here saying that you could actually leave your stuff lying around and nobody will take or steal it... now, i think im having second thoughts on that one....
