@americanfille: Replying to @Ben Sia pickpockets dont want to cause a scene, tbeir whole operation relies on stealth and not drawing attention to thelmselves. So while cutting a bag to steal it certainly does happen, its less common. #pickpocket #paris
Can you show what you mean by tote bag? I'm almost sure what you mean but not sure.

Amanda, What about a safe way to to carry/use your phone when it’s your camera? Was looking at a lanyard, so atleast it’s not just handheld. Thoughts?

All the pickpocket videos are making me nervous of my trip and I’m from México City! Haha is it worst? Or are people just not “used to it”?

My tote is open at the top (i.e., no zipper on the top edge. While part of it is protected by my underarm, the rest seems pretty vulnerable. Would like to see your tote(s).

My sister’s bag attempted to be cut on the metro. Her bag was reinforced and the guy panicked and jumped off at next stop.

I always use a cross body back and I always have it in front of me and the zip closed. The tote is not efficient to hold it all day long while sightseeing.

Was pickpocketed last year. My friend who lives in Paris says to put valuables in your large suitcase since they can’t run with it. Thoughts?

I‘m not sure, but maybe they meant pickpockets cutting into the side of the tote to reach inside. It’s a quiet way to gain access to someone’s bag if you have a small sharp knife.
