  I have unfortunately 2 experiences and want to share.

  I hope this will prevent similar incidents for those reading this.

  On both cases it was a group of women. One was at an exhibition at Giang Vo and other very recently in Big C. In both cases my purse was opened while I was carrying it very “carefully” in front of me and tightly. What happen was that I was surrounded by 4 to 5 women all of a sudden and they started crowding me, pushing me and I always thought why are these people creating a fuss and in such a hurry? Only later I discovered that they managed to open the zipper of my purse/bag and took the money from inside. so I recommend everyone to avoid crowed places and even if you are there be very alert when u are suddenly surrounded by Vietnamese women and suddenly they start hustling and bustling as if they are trying to get some shopping done. Mostly these women do not seem to be the obvious type, i.e. they are very well dressed and seem to be from well to do family.

  Bottom line: avoid crowed places including the weekend in Big C supermarket, the night market and any exhibitions
