Are you forty years old and fat? Do you wear fine clothes? Do you look rich? If so, be careful. There is a pickpocket looking for you. World travelers, away from home and usually carrying a lot of money, are often troubled by pickpockets in foreign countries, but they should remember that there are pickpockets in their own countries, too.
A typical pickpocket is under forty years of age, usually a male. He has trained himself in running. Generally, he carries a newspaper or magazine in his hand. He may appear fairly clever and pretend to be calm. He has learned his job from another pickpocket, and he pays his "teacher" back by giving him a percentage of the money or things which he steals.
The good pickpocket always operates in crowded places. Very well-dressed men and slightly drunken men are the favorite objects of the pickpocket.
An average-sized department store hires about six or seven men and women who are looking for pickpockets and thieves all the time. Many police districts have such people whose only job is to catch the pickpockets quickly. But a good pickpocket knows these things and is very careful. He is especially busy on buses, trains and subways between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. when there are many shoppers with much money to spend. He carefully remembers the payday of companies.
Pickpocketing and stealing from a shop together represent about 75% of daytime crime in America. The sentence for these crimes is usually from three to five years in prison. After finishing their sentence, pickpockets and thieves usually advance to more serious crimes.
12 What does a typical pickpocket look like?
13 What kind of people are the favorite objects of the pickpocket?
14 What does the speaker tell us about a good pickpocket?
15 What will the pickpockets and thieves do after finishing their sentence?
