A viral post warning everyone of a new modus in the area of Fairview, Quezon City alerted a lot of netizens.
Angelica Faigao posted the warning on her Facebook profile. According to Angelica, she was with her boyfriend Seth walking along a footbridge from SM Fairview going to Terraces.
While they were on the foot bridge, her boyfriend felt something strange about his bag. When he turned around, he saw a guy who was suspiciously too close to them.
When they were about to go down the footbridge, her boyfriend once again felt something going on with his bag and turned around to see the same guy walking away.
Seth had a hunch about what was happening and immediately checked for his phone. He discovered that it was missing. Going with their hunch, they went after the suspicious guy and interrogated him about the phone. The guy insisted that he doesn't know anything as he was hurrying to get inside a UV express.
Insistent, the couple wouldn't let him go. Angelica decided to record what was happening, alerting the suspect. He gave the phone back angrily and walked away as fast as he could.
"Nag talo muna sila dahil nga pinipilit niya na ilabas ng lalaki yung phone. Nagmatigas yung lalaki at sumakay ng UV. Binuksan ni Seth yung UV para pababain yung lalaki. At nung nakita niya na nag tatawag na ng tao si Seth at nakita niya rin ako na nag vivideo kaya nataranta siguro siya at inilabas na yung phone saka idinikdik sa tiyan ko, at bago pa siya abutan ni Seth ay umalis agad siya at tumawid ng dirediretso at sumakay agad ng jeep." Angelica shared.
The pickpocket has yet to be identified.
Angelica warned everyone to be extra careful with their valuables especially when they are in crowded places.
She also reminded everyone by saying: "Wag na wag mag lalagay ng phone or pera sa bulsa ng bag lalo na kung naka back pack ka."
Her post has already garnered 4.8 thousand reactions and over 8.5 thousand shares as of this writing.
