In my wife's country Philippines pickpockets or snatchers are usually severely beaten up by people when caught before the police arrives to take the person away. Police is not interested in the beating of the pickpocket or snatcher, only in his crime. A sister-in-law of mine became victim of a snatcher once. He was caught by bystanders within seconds and could hardly walk to the policecar after the beating he received by ordinary people.
In Indonesia, if a pickpocket is caught, they get beaten up, it can be a crisis if no one stops them until the police come, and if it's a female pickpocket, the women punish them by pulling the pickpocket's hair/slapping/tearing the pickpocket's clothes until the police come to arrest them. It is most practical to be given a public punishment first. 😅
I beleive in 90 Malaysia also got pick pocket problem but somehow nowadays seem like the problem dissappeared. Need to study how our government handled it.

Just returned home to Canada after being in Barcelona literally last week, I was able to find your channel before I traveled over to Spain and try to prepare myself for what I may have been in for. I ended up having a guy attempt to get into my front cross-body bag on the bus to Guel Park by throwing his jacket over to cover up my bag but he wasn't successful and backed right off after i caught him. The bus was so packed but there just was something about him that caught my attention even beforehand. Appreciate these videos and the people exposing these absolutely disgusting people. Keep up the great work!!!!

One night in Barcelona several years ago, my husband was walking on Las Ramblas with a box in one hand and a lit cigarette in the other. A gypsy woman put her hand in his side pocket where he keeps his wallet wrapped in a thick rubber band to create friction. He felt his wallet move and he reached down. The lit cigar left her with a burn she would not forget.
@@leonardhpls6 When you are a smoker a lot of times you hold your cigarette at your side by your pocket. So as soon as he felt the friction he moves his hand with the cigarette towards his pocket, hence her getting burned because her hand was coming out of the pocket. Think about logic, before you speak... I know it's hard for you....Oh, and it's a good thing you're not a smoker cuz you just got BURNED!!!!!!!!!!
Retired flight attendant here and the first thing we learned after training was to be weary of pickpockets. I love these videos! New level of satisfaction unlocked lol
Barcelona is such a nice city but the pickpockets, tricksters and sales people at the beach are ruining the trip for tourists. The city should take care of that problem asap
I remember when I went to Madrid, the 1st day while eating on a terrace 2 guys tried to steal my bag. It was a great trip, but I remember this moment most of all
Well, those pickpockets are not Spanish, they are all foreigners so it makes it a bit more difficult because our laws are too weak as they are afraid to be racist.
@@Ilar-en7lg tampoco exageres, la ley es igual de contundente contra los extranjeros o incluso peor como debe ser, otra cosa es que la mayoría de extranjeros delincuentes sean menores y no pueden ir a la carcel
In December 2019, I got pickpocketed when exiting metro to La Rambla street. She (the thief, a young lady walking behind me) stole my wallet with two credit cards, €100 cash, my IDs and most importantly a photo of my two daughters, which was the unique copy from their childhood. In less than 5 minutes before I managed to disable the cards, she was able to withdrew €1800 as well. I was in complete shock and went to 3 police stations just to get a paper to prove the theft. The police were as careless as they could be. And there was a long queue of people of the same fate and some got their entire belongings stolen and some were crying. I think the Spanish police is complicit in this scheme and that is why they don’t take any action to prevent it. And thieves work in a network and you should never use your credit cards to buy a metro ticket as some of them may be watching you entering your pin code from afar.
They should plaster the faces of the pick pockets that are known to police all over the insides of the trains so ppl can recognize their faces and be more aware
@@AdventureElliotin Milan things are out of control as well right now. They're some volunteers as well in the metro to inform people of those pickpockets, but still people are left in tears at the end of the day. It's extremely sad having such weak laws for this kind of criminality.
I'm watching from Asia and I'm relieved to see action being taken on this issue. Many people I know returned from Europe with stories of being pickpocketed. It's unfortunate that some immigrants are contributing to Europe's negative reputation. Well done! I hope this problem is resolved effectively in the future. I disagree with the lady at the beginning of the video who said that where there's tourism, there are pickpockets. This doesn't happen in Singapore because our strict laws ensure that anyone caught faces jail time.
Yes, but it only doesn't happen in countries that are super strict (as they should, also Singapore is sooo small it's like a city so i think it's really different and not comparable with Spain or other major cities in Europe.) Other than that pickpockets exist in almost all major touristic places, and it only ever happens where tourism is
@@olgahalkidou1128 Agreed. That's why I mentioned in Singapore the strict laws ensure that anyone caught faces jail time whereas in Europe, they are let off with warnings. When there are consequences, the crime rates will go down.
Agreed. I remember Singapore still has flogging as a punishment for public nuisance. For sure this would be a deterrent not the European way of giving criminals milk and cookies for a few hours in jail.
The pickpockets is a big problem. Me having and injured leg and needing to use a cane comes across as an easy victim. And first time they did succeed. There have been 3 other attempts that didn't succeed after though. My favorite, he decided to pick take my cellphone inside the elevator in the metro station Arc DeTriomph. Now, that was stupid though. There is really nowhere to run inside a closed elevator. With my cane lifted above my head ready to fullfill justice, he just handed my cellphone back to me.
@@Herr.Kaiser Politicians control the laws in their country unless the EU is putting their greedy fingers in between. This could either be solved by locals giving out severe street justice or politicians doing what is right. Most Europeans will prefer the second alternative.
My wife and I visited Greece, Italy and France a few years ago, we were scammed by someone at the Milan train station. We always wanted to visit Europe again but street theft, fraud are a real concern for us.
Here in the UK if you followed a pickpocket around loudly calling them out you would almost certainly find yourself arrested for harassment, such are the crazy laws in the UK.
@@justhimo2728 Highly unlikely. It is common knowledge that the police in the UK have a two-tier policing system. Crimes against white British people are at the bottom of the list of police priorities...
Here in the US and as long as you are in public, loudly calling them out is protected under freedom of speech. If you filmed them doing the act, then you can also tackle them and call the cops. Sadly, not a lot of people now a days care for others. Its a ME world out there now!
I visited Barcelona in 2010. I stayed on La Rambla. Very noisy all night. A friend was standing still just people watching near our hotel. A man approached him and asked if he could tell him the time. He told the man the time and he left. A couple minutes late two men approached him and flashed credentials and badges say they were an undercover task force surveilling the man who had just approached him. They asked if he was asked to purchase drugs by the man or if he had tried to sell drugs to the man. They began to aggressively question about other things. My friend began to worry he might be in trouble with the law. They demand he produce identification immediately. He pulled his wallet from his pocket and the men snatched it and ran off. Watch out in Barcelona. There are many scams. Also we were warned prior to arrival about the African prostitutes being pick pockets. They are very aggressive and telling them no politely has no effect. They will come at you even in the presence of your children trying to hold your hands and arms from both sides to rob you.
the patriotism of the people of spain is so admirable. i hope one day i get to visit and see this beautiful city and meet its wonderful people. hi from australia.
She’s brave woman. Being proactive. In the US some stores are printing pictures of people who steal and putting it up on the wall in front of the store.
I wasn’t aware of this problem until I visited, buying a few going-home gifts 3 hours before my flight home on Las Ramblas. Went to pay and everything was gone - wallet, passport, cards. Could not believe the amount of unsavoury immigrants allowed around the tourist areas. Poor Europe. Thank you to these warriors !!!
Majority of thieves are locals and Romanians, neither one of these are immigrants as Spain is part of the EU and so is Romania, go be racist someplace else
True story. I am English with a deep love for Romania. My closest friends are Romanian, I go there often and I speak the language. One of my friends is a teacher in a rural area where there are a lot of Roma families. A few of the parents are keen for their kids to go to school and get an education but they are in the minority. Many teachers spend their time going around knocking on doors trying to get the families to send their kids to school. It's hard. She recently had a young Roma lad who was a success story and completed his education. When discussing what to do next the lad explained that he would like to go to college but he was under pressure from his family to go to Paris to scam, pickpocket and help a begging gang.
I was planning to bring my family to Barcelona this summer for our holidays. So I started doing some research. The more I researched and learned about the migration and the mega pick-pocket problems, the more I didn’t want to go to Barcelona. When on holiday I want to be relaxed without having to be alert constantly. In the end we decided not to go. Barcelona just lost our 2-3 thousand euros spending money because they refuse to resolve these issues that have a negative impact on their beautiful city. Such a shame.
Before my first trip to Barcelona, many friends warned me to watch my wallet but after spending one week there, nothing happened. When I got back to Greece, I had to stay one night in Athens where a pickpocket took my wallet in the Monastiraki metro station without noticing...it was such a horrible experience as he took all my money and cards....
I been to Europe many times and pickpockets are serious. I been robbed a couple of times. These people are doing a good job cleaning up the streets. Thanks to them! God bless!
Hi Elliot, I was in Tenerife, Canary Islands and in the Los Cristianos part of the island I got my phone stolen which had pics of my late Mum and my Late Sister which weren't backed up. Los Cristianos at night is VERY easy to get pickpocketed especially when you're drunk
Instead of being ashamed, they are angry and make themselves victims, disgusting! Healthy people who could work, steal from others, disgusting. Thanks for your videos and good work.
Oh wow!! I'm glad you guys are doing this, Barcelona is a beautiful city. I left Barcelona 2 weeks ago, and I'm looking forward to visiting more city of Spain 🇪🇸
It's not just pickpockets. Friends of mine were stopped in a queue of traffic entering Barcelona and hadn't locked their car doors, suddenly the car doors, both rear and forward were opened, they both had hands pushed into the faces and their bags left on the rear seats were taken. Passports, Credit Cards and Cash all gone in seconds. A holiday ruined before it had begun but a lesson learned . 1, keep your car doors locked, 2, be alert and aware if you're visiting Barcelona.
I love how all the locals were so supportive of Eliot and taking down pickpockets. I live in Portugal, which is bordering Spain. And for the most part, you won’t find as many pickpockets as in Spain. It’s crazy how it changes from one country to another. I’m going on vacation to Madrid really soon, so I have been watching lots of Madrid videos about pickpockets. Love from Portugal 🇵🇹 ❤
This is what happens when law doesn't do it's duty, public has to. In a way it's good, even thieves will be fed up of being exposed and start working, public will be aware and careful. Good work, keep it up.
I thought Latin America was bad, at least the police over here is doing its job. This is madness. how is it possible that governments alow this kind of thing to happen.
Fundamentally it's decadence that is causing weak people and weak politicians with weak laws and weak policing. The people need to rise up and demand actions by the politicans and this will be fixed in no time. If foreign people came to different parts of the world and started committing crimes en masse you can bet your last dollar the locals will make sure the signal is clear what happens to such people...
Thank you for bringing light to this situation. I was totally blindsided when I went about a week ago. Got robbed in broad daylight leaving las ramblas.
Wished you recorded the other faces of his group in the train. Hopefully you can next time with a much larger group. Be safe out there. Great video as always!
@@AdventureElliotYou’re right health and safety #1. I understand, don’t want to risk getting jumped by a bunch of thugs. Glad you’re raising awareness! Appreciate the time and effort you put into this!
Do the patrols of citizens who catch the pickpockets have a group that people can donate to. I know it must be a full time work to watch the criminals and the retired people who catch them can create groups that we can donate funds to pay them like a neighborhood watch

Salute to eliana & marco and their team for exerting efforts and doing duties for such taking action in trying to stop and suppressing such bad people continue for their wrongdoings such as pickpocketing, robbing and even swindling who are attacking innocent people particularly the innocent tourists who are just trying to enjoy and take vacation & hoping to get a nice trip. So kudos for those good people for such a great and tremendous job. God Bless Yoi all guys....❤❤❤ From Lapu-Lapu Citu, Cebu, PHILIPPINES....Te amo y Adios!😮😮
Jajaja Half Chilean.... Cómo eres una mitad de un Chileno.... o naciste en Chile o no naciste en Chile.... no eres mitad de un país y mitad del otro.... Get it right! Was one of your feet born in Chile and the other foot in another country? Maybe if you were standing between Chile and Peru or Chile and Argentina when you were born.... But babies don't stand when they are born😂
Great video. And when Elliot says that the "locals" insult the Chilean, most of said "locals", as well as the heroic "guerrera", are also immigr-ants from Latin America. So no one can call these activists "rac-ists".
That’s exactly the point of showing these warriors .. they were also immigrants from different backgrounds and different beliefs but fighting for common sense and safety
I lived last year in Barcelona Les Corts area and never had any problems with thefts, I rarely used the metro and tried to avoid popular tourist spots. For me, Barcelona is one of the best cities to live in the world, along with Moscow and Tokyo.
Hola Elliot, Hope all is just swell. A pre-congrats on your soon to be milestone of one hundred subs. The 'Guerrera' actually pin pointed the exact route I took when I was in Spain back in November. I am still smiling from my once-in-a-lifetime solo backpacking sabbatical that led me to end up venturing Morocco also. I went through a lot of hardships prior to my journey and I want to pay respects to your channel which is always fun, extreme, and a great source for research for anyone who is planning on travelling to Spain for an adventure. Which is exactly what everyone needs to do... Enjoy God's greatest gift, LIFE!
You're super brave Elliot. It can be seen that you love the city and you do this from heart on order to fight against the criminality of a city that without pickpockets would be perfect. I can see how you don't get scared at all by them and with this you give confidence and strength to those around you and this comes back to you by them with even more support and and strength.
Love the work you guys are doing. I am in India but have watched your videos. Appreciate your and the groups efforts. Keep it up. World needs people like you all.
That woman is brilliant. Ive seen videos on her before & i just love her to bits & yes she is a true warrior & hero. Espania & Barcelona should be so very proud of her. I cannot praise her enough
For now there will be no more pickpocket videos because 1 they are extremely difficult to do and 2 I'm on a north and south american tour visiting family and making new videos doing what I've always loved to do: adventure travel and culture/language.

Good idea, When I was in another country when I was young, I made a secret pocket inside my skirt, where I kept my card, cash, Id and phone, I only opened it when I was in a building safe place. To get at it the thief would have had to put their hands down the front of my skirt waist band. The only thing I had in a small bag attached to me was a lip salve, tissues silly stuff. I made a secret pocket inside your trousers, skirt shirt etc. Try doing that then in a bag attached to you and in your visual pockets put carpet racks that will have the pick pockets, hand full of tacks. Or glue tacks to an old phone with no info on it or other things that look like they would hold money, wallets ,purse, just colour tacks same as the product they are attached to and wam bam thank you Mam Pick pockets with bloody hands
During my one year in Barcelona, I got stolen and lost almost 6000 Euros, and several time almost got robbed, and several times got scammed. It's so upset.
@@AdventureElliot my first experience was on my fifth day after landed in Barcelona. Honestly I've already raised my guard and my expectations since I did some homework about the security in Barcelona. But I still underestimated it. I was at the McDonald located around Baceloneta. I chose a seat at the corner of the restaurant so I assumed that anybody who came to my area would be seen. So I put my bag aside. And It's gone after 5 minutes. I don't even know how Those thief master did it. I tried to ask for help but the stuff refused to check the cameras. I went to the police station, they don't even try to make a record.
@@AdventureElliot I remembered clearly that they told me they were changing shift So Maybe I can come back in an hour or sth. I said I can stay and wait. Suddenly all of the police officers turned and looked at me like I'm a dumb. So I realized that it's just an excuse. I gave up, left, and reported in another remote police station later for documents. I lost thousands of cash and all the cards. Oh, I blocked my card, but they still tried to use it so I got informed about the location(and update to date), I told this useful information to the police and looking forward to some help. They said, it's useless.
The scamm was happened in Gracia neighborhood where I was living for half a year. Something stinks "dropped" on me and a lady showed up to clean for me with her tissues, another guy showed up with a bottle of water and tried to help. I didn't realize it was a scamm until they suddenly disappear before I got completely clean but guard my bag all time left them no chance to touch. I figured it out by their exact opposite attitude.
I was about to leave a mall when three young men came in. My sixth sense sensed that they were looking back at me after passing me. They followed me until I came to a neighborhood that wasn't so crowded, and they tried to disturb me, saying random things, asking where I was from, asking me for a fire, asking me for hi five, I didn't answer anything, holding on to my phone and walking with my head down. They got annoyed and started swearing at me, and I suddenly sped up and ran to a restaurant. They left. I know the robbery would happen if I stayed another 5 minutes
The group of people that took photos at La Sagrada Familia was from Indonesia, a Southeast Asian country. They shouted "satu, dua, tiga, jaya.. " In my country, if we shout pickpocket when he is doing action. Many people will come to hit him.. We shout them "pencopet". I am a Indonesian. 🇮🇩
The one time in Barcelona my elderly dad was done in the escalator trick. guy in front drops his phone bends over to pick it up while the group behind all pile up behind my dad ...looks like a silly accident comotion, even i was laughing watching it. Until he realised his wallet was gone...And yeh he had it in his backpocket!! doh .appreciate the channel man x
I remember visiting Barcelona as a child in the 80s. One couple actually got strong arm robbed. Our tour group was on alert the rest of the time there.
I hope that all of Spain, France, Italy and Turkey will be cleared of these fraudulent activities and we will start living decent and honorable lives as good people. UA-cam is the best tool to help us with this.👏👏👏😄💃👏👏👏
Barcelona is an amazing city. I went there two years ago in august, visit a friend who lives there and it's a good month to visit the city. There are many turists,but many locals are on vacations and the metro is not that full.
Que verguenza, soy chileno y siento que por culpa de esos pocos sujetos quedamos todos mancillados. No veo argentinos o uruguayos o paragyayos o brasileños robando en los metros de europa, pero si chilenos... porque??? Porfa alguien me lo explique ya que aqui en Chile la xenofobia crece de manera exponencial y tarde o temprano ya rozará el nazismo latinoamericano.
Rome is exactly the same. City administrators, politicians, the police, and their families should be obligated to use the public transport system, and you’ll soon see how quickly they will change this primitive and barbaric jungle.
Ugh planning on traveling to Barcelona in June and now I’m anxiety ridden! Traveled all over Europe but have never felt this anxious about a city. 😣 Thank you for the informative video.
As much as I love our Siesta time, we really don't need that during the cooler weather, in the high heat that's why we actually (excuse;) to take our Siesta time, but from fall to spring that's really not necessary, especially with issues like that happening.....
@@AdventureElliot I was close, Santa Marta very Caribbean!! We are flying to Madrid from Miami FL next Friday, will also be doing Seville and Granada. Great video and thanks for the good job and info
I’ve been to Barcelona 4times and I’m going again in august.. I’ve never had a problem with pickpockets etc but I will be very alert, guess it’s luck of the draw!
I lived in Barca for 6 months & and it's a real problem. Keep valuables close & be alert, like in any major city. We used to buy cheap wallets & drop them infront of a picket pocket..... When the pickpocket guys would pick up the wallet, we'd laugh at them., as it was empty. 😊LAS Ramblas is where they hunt also, funny thing is thats where there is a big police station! Dont eat or drink on this street as its overpriced. GOOD uck on almost 100k subs.
A few years back a group of us were on the train and saw a guy swipe a girl’s purse… worse thing for him was we all saw and we beat the shit out of him… some will say that’s bad but I personally especially after seeing that 2nd guy just can’t see how you would t wanna beat them up. Thanks for bringing these ppl to the light and help those that go to these places to be aware of the possibility of getting robbed… too keep their belongings safe 🙏🏽
Lady in 1:32 is completely wrong. Thieves have only good life in Spain, France, maybe a little bit in Germany, because they have weak law. For example in Poland, Dubai or Japan pickpocketing doesn't exist.
Doesn't exist in Australia either. Mass immigration is the blame for pickpockets, etc, and unfortunately, our government is letting in masses, so my beautiful country will probably end up the same😢
It happened to me January, 2015. They were able to take 80 euros but funny enough I went back for my money and got it . Had to fight the mother and the daughter was the one holding my money. They are everywhere gosh.

I disagree with the lady at the beginning of the video who said that where there's tourism, there are pickpockets. This doesn't happen in Singapore because our strict laws ensure that anyone caught faces jail time.
Yes, but it only doesn't happen in countries that are super strict (as they should, also Singapore is sooo small it's like a city so i think it's really different and not comparable with Spain or other major cities in Europe.) Other than that pickpockets exist in almost all major touristic places, and it only ever happens where tourism is
Δυστυχώς στην Ευρώπη η αστυνομία δεν τους τιμωρεί.
@@olgahalkidou1128 Agreed. That's why I mentioned in Singapore the strict laws ensure that anyone caught faces jail time whereas in Europe, they are let off with warnings. When there are consequences, the crime rates will go down.
That's a typical defeatist decadent attitude found in Europe. We are weak and bad people are capitilizing. As long as we are weak they will continue.
Agreed. I remember Singapore still has flogging as a punishment for public nuisance. For sure this would be a deterrent not the European way of giving criminals milk and cookies for a few hours in jail.
The pickpockets is a big problem. Me having and injured leg and needing to use a cane comes across as an easy victim. And first time they did succeed. There have been 3 other attempts that didn't succeed after though. My favorite, he decided to pick take my cellphone inside the elevator in the metro station Arc DeTriomph. Now, that was stupid though. There is really nowhere to run inside a closed elevator. With my cane lifted above my head ready to fullfill justice, he just handed my cellphone back to me.
🙈😲😆
Its such a big problem… so sad the cities just do not care
@@bestgamting Experienced my 5th attempt last Friday. But as long as nothing gets done about it, the problem will only grow.
😂
The Authorities are part of the problem.
This is what you with this left wing socialist idiot that runs Spain now…
They've always been. War, 9/11, c0v1d, etc.
Not the authorities, the law. They can't do anything because the law in Spain defends this kind of people, is stupid but it is how it is
Authorities IS THE PROBLEM they protect this individuals
@@Herr.Kaiser Politicians control the laws in their country unless the EU is putting their greedy fingers in between. This could either be solved by locals giving out severe street justice or politicians doing what is right. Most Europeans will prefer the second alternative.
My wife and I visited Greece, Italy and France a few years ago, we were scammed by someone at the Milan train station. We always wanted to visit Europe again but street theft, fraud are a real concern for us.
Here in the UK if you followed a pickpocket around loudly calling them out you would almost certainly find yourself arrested for harassment, such are the crazy laws in the UK.
if I call the police did they will arrest the thief himself?? or they just doesn't care 😂
@@justhimo2728 Highly unlikely. It is common knowledge that the police in the UK have a two-tier policing system. Crimes against white British people are at the bottom of the list of police priorities...
They don't care, the bad people have more rights than the good people @@justhimo2728
Here in the US and as long as you are in public, loudly calling them out is protected under freedom of speech. If you filmed them doing the act, then you can also tackle them and call the cops. Sadly, not a lot of people now a days care for others. Its a ME world out there now!
Better do something before they are full of scammers like FACEBOOK!!
You’re a very good person. GOD BLESS you. Thank you for doing this and making tourists aware of this issue.
The law needs to change , we have the same issue here in Tenerife. Be safe stay strong Elliot
I visited Barcelona in 2010. I stayed on La Rambla. Very noisy all night. A friend was standing still just people watching near our hotel. A man approached him and asked if he could tell him the time. He told the man the time and he left. A couple minutes late two men approached him and flashed credentials and badges say they were an undercover task force surveilling the man who had just approached him. They asked if he was asked to purchase drugs by the man or if he had tried to sell drugs to the man. They began to aggressively question about other things. My friend began to worry he might be in trouble with the law. They demand he produce identification immediately. He pulled his wallet from his pocket and the men snatched it and ran off. Watch out in Barcelona. There are many scams. Also we were warned prior to arrival about the African prostitutes being pick pockets. They are very aggressive and telling them no politely has no effect. They will come at you even in the presence of your children trying to hold your hands and arms from both sides to rob you.
we need this same program in San Francisco!
Let's support this channel, because the authorities are not taking concrete action to eradicate pickpockets and scams.
Had my phone snapped put of my hand in Barcelona, police wont do anything, well done to all those helping 🙌
It's incredible how you get into such delicate and dangerous situations in Spain.
Bro your English is getting better 😎
In Barcelona*
the patriotism of the people of spain is so admirable. i hope one day i get to visit and see this beautiful city and meet its wonderful people. hi from australia.
She’s brave woman. Being proactive. In the US some stores are printing pictures of people who steal and putting it up on the wall in front of the store.
I wasn’t aware of this problem until I visited, buying a few going-home gifts 3 hours before my flight home on Las Ramblas. Went to pay and everything was gone - wallet, passport, cards. Could not believe the amount of unsavoury immigrants allowed around the tourist areas. Poor Europe. Thank you to these warriors !!!
Majority of thieves are locals and Romanians, neither one of these are immigrants as Spain is part of the EU and so is Romania, go be racist someplace else
True story. I am English with a deep love for Romania. My closest friends are Romanian, I go there often and I speak the language. One of my friends is a teacher in a rural area where there are a lot of Roma families. A few of the parents are keen for their kids to go to school and get an education but they are in the minority. Many teachers spend their time going around knocking on doors trying to get the families to send their kids to school. It's hard. She recently had a young Roma lad who was a success story and completed his education. When discussing what to do next the lad explained that he would like to go to college but he was under pressure from his family to go to Paris to scam, pickpocket and help a begging gang.
I was planning to bring my family to Barcelona this summer for our holidays. So I started doing some research. The more I researched and learned about the migration and the mega pick-pocket problems, the more I didn’t want to go to Barcelona. When on holiday I want to be relaxed without having to be alert constantly.
In the end we decided not to go. Barcelona just lost our 2-3 thousand euros spending money because they refuse to resolve these issues that have a negative impact on their beautiful city. Such a shame.
I lived there for 6 months. Never had any issues,.... I did often spot scammers & shame so many wronguns in that city.
I'm sure the city can survive without your money seriously 😂 The city suffers from overtourism so thank you for not coming 🫡
Better stay at home. Barcelona needs good tourists
ugly remarks must be from the pickpockets …
@@webwhisper2701 Dude if i was a pickpocket I'd want him to come 🤷♂️ Ripe for the picking 😂😂 Don't need condescending tourists thank you
Before my first trip to Barcelona, many friends warned me to watch my wallet but after spending one week there, nothing happened. When I got back to Greece, I had to stay one night in Athens where a pickpocket took my wallet in the Monastiraki metro station without noticing...it was such a horrible experience as he took all my money and cards....
I been to Europe many times and pickpockets are serious. I been robbed a couple of times. These people are doing a good job cleaning up the streets. Thanks to them! God bless!
Great job folks .... my firend and his wife just returned from Barcelona ... and yes, she got pickpocketed. Keep up the good work.
Hi Elliot, I was in Tenerife, Canary Islands and in the Los Cristianos part of the island I got my phone stolen which had pics of my late Mum and my Late Sister which weren't backed up.
Los Cristianos at night is VERY easy to get pickpocketed especially when you're drunk
That's the main reason I've never visited Barcelona. Great job exposing!!
The City is gorgeous. Just dont bring too much cash and jewelry with you. Travel light and easy. You will enjoy Barcelona
Instead of being ashamed, they are angry and make themselves victims, disgusting! Healthy people who could work, steal from others, disgusting. Thanks for your videos and good work.
IKR...the audacity 😱
Oh wow!! I'm glad you guys are doing this, Barcelona is a beautiful city. I left Barcelona 2 weeks ago, and I'm looking forward to visiting more city of Spain 🇪🇸
It's not just pickpockets. Friends of mine were stopped in a queue of traffic entering Barcelona and hadn't locked their car doors, suddenly the car doors, both rear and forward were opened, they both had hands pushed into the faces and their bags left on the rear seats were taken. Passports, Credit Cards and Cash all gone in seconds. A holiday ruined before it had begun but a lesson learned . 1, keep your car doors locked, 2, be alert and aware if you're visiting Barcelona.
I love how all the locals were so supportive of Eliot and taking down pickpockets.
I live in Portugal, which is bordering Spain. And for the most part, you won’t find as many pickpockets as in Spain. It’s crazy how it changes from one country to another. I’m going on vacation to Madrid really soon, so I have been watching lots of Madrid videos about pickpockets.
Love from Portugal 🇵🇹 ❤
In Portugal on most beaches you can just leave your bag and towel and find it still there when returning from the water. Wouldn't do that elsewhere.
@@Roosmarijn035 True
This is what happens when law doesn't do it's duty, public has to. In a way it's good, even thieves will be fed up of being exposed and start working, public will be aware and careful.
Good work, keep it up.
I thought Latin America was bad, at least the police over here is doing its job. This is madness. how is it possible that governments alow this kind of thing to happen.
Latin america is very bad
its all planned in all west countries, who really rule hate europeans
Out of touch politicians I guess.
Because the governments are the real thife in the society
Fundamentally it's decadence that is causing weak people and weak politicians with weak laws and weak policing. The people need to rise up and demand actions by the politicans and this will be fixed in no time.
If foreign people came to different parts of the world and started committing crimes en masse you can bet your last dollar the locals will make sure the signal is clear what happens to such people...
Thank you for bringing light to this situation. I was totally blindsided when I went about a week ago. Got robbed in broad daylight leaving las ramblas.
Great job, thanks very much. Day 1, years ago, i went to a cafe for two beers and came back with empty pockets. A real nightmare. I love what you do.
Wished you recorded the other faces of his group in the train. Hopefully you can next time with a much larger group. Be safe out there. Great video as always!
It was a scary moment, they had a big group and they used that guy as a pawn to distract from them.
@@AdventureElliotYou’re right health and safety #1. I understand, don’t want to risk getting jumped by a bunch of thugs. Glad you’re raising awareness! Appreciate the time and effort you put into this!
They should point out child predators like this in the states 😮😅
Do the patrols of citizens who catch the pickpockets have a group that people can donate to. I know it must be a full time work to watch the criminals and the retired people who catch them can create groups that we can donate funds to pay them like a neighborhood watch

Great video. And when Elliot says that the "locals" insult the Chilean, most of said "locals", as well as the heroic "guerrera", are also immigr-ants from Latin America. So no one can call these activists "rac-ists".
That’s exactly the point of showing these warriors .. they were also immigrants from different backgrounds and different beliefs but fighting for common sense and safety
I lived last year in Barcelona Les Corts area and never had any problems with thefts, I rarely used the metro and tried to avoid popular tourist spots. For me, Barcelona is one of the best cities to live in the world, along with Moscow and Tokyo.
Hola Elliot,
Hope all is just swell. A pre-congrats on your soon to be milestone of one hundred subs. The 'Guerrera' actually pin pointed the exact route I took when I was in Spain back in November. I am still smiling from my once-in-a-lifetime solo backpacking sabbatical that led me to end up venturing Morocco also. I went through a lot of hardships prior to my journey and I want to pay respects to your channel which is always fun, extreme, and a great source for research for anyone who is planning on travelling to Spain for an adventure. Which is exactly what everyone needs to do... Enjoy God's greatest gift, LIFE!
You're super brave Elliot. It can be seen that you love the city and you do this from heart on order to fight against the criminality of a city that without pickpockets would be perfect. I can see how you don't get scared at all by them and with this you give confidence and strength to those around you and this comes back to you by them with even more support and and strength.
Love you guys, you are doing a good job. God bless you all!
Love the work you guys are doing. I am in India but have watched your videos. Appreciate your and the groups efforts. Keep it up. World needs people like you all.

That woman is brilliant. Ive seen videos on her before & i just love her to bits & yes she is a true warrior & hero. Espania & Barcelona should be so very proud of her. I cannot praise her enough
For now there will be no more pickpocket videos because 1 they are extremely difficult to do and 2 I'm on a north and south american tour visiting family and making new videos doing what I've always loved to do: adventure travel and culture/language.

Good idea,
When I was in another country when I was young, I made a secret pocket inside my skirt, where I kept my card, cash, Id and phone, I only opened it when I was in a building safe place.
To get at it the thief would have had to put their hands down the front of my skirt waist band.
The only thing I had in a small bag attached to me was a lip salve, tissues silly stuff.
I made a secret pocket inside your trousers, skirt shirt etc.
Try doing that then in a bag attached to you and in your visual pockets put carpet racks that will have the pick pockets, hand full of tacks.
Or glue tacks to an old phone with no info on it or other things that look like they would hold money, wallets ,purse, just colour tacks same as the product they are attached to and wam bam thank you Mam
Pick pockets with bloody hands
Yep, down ya knickers - it's the only way...
During my one year in Barcelona, I got stolen and lost almost 6000 Euros, and several time almost got robbed, and several times got scammed. It's so upset.
Can you elaborate? Where did you live? How did you lose the 6000? How were the attempted robberies ?
@@AdventureElliot my first experience was on my fifth day after landed in Barcelona. Honestly I've already raised my guard and my expectations since I did some homework about the security in Barcelona. But I still underestimated it. I was at the McDonald located around Baceloneta. I chose a seat at the corner of the restaurant so I assumed that anybody who came to my area would be seen. So I put my bag aside. And It's gone after 5 minutes. I don't even know how Those thief master did it. I tried to ask for help but the stuff refused to check the cameras. I went to the police station, they don't even try to make a record.
@@AdventureElliot I remembered clearly that they told me they were changing shift So Maybe I can come back in an hour or sth. I said I can stay and wait. Suddenly all of the police officers turned and looked at me like I'm a dumb. So I realized that it's just an excuse. I gave up, left, and reported in another remote police station later for documents. I lost thousands of cash and all the cards. Oh, I blocked my card, but they still tried to use it so I got informed about the location(and update to date), I told this useful information to the police and looking forward to some help. They said, it's useless.
The scamm was happened in Gracia neighborhood where I was living for half a year. Something stinks "dropped" on me and a lady showed up to clean for me with her tissues, another guy showed up with a bottle of water and tried to help. I didn't realize it was a scamm until they suddenly disappear before I got completely clean but guard my bag all time left them no chance to touch. I figured it out by their exact opposite attitude.
I was about to leave a mall when three young men came in. My sixth sense sensed that they were looking back at me after passing me. They followed me until I came to a neighborhood that wasn't so crowded, and they tried to disturb me, saying random things, asking where I was from, asking me for a fire, asking me for hi five, I didn't answer anything, holding on to my phone and walking with my head down. They got annoyed and started swearing at me, and I suddenly sped up and ran to a restaurant. They left. I know the robbery would happen if I stayed another 5 minutes
The group of people that took photos at La Sagrada Familia was from Indonesia, a Southeast Asian country.
They shouted "satu, dua, tiga, jaya.. "
In my country, if we shout pickpocket when he is doing action. Many people will come to hit him..
We shout them "pencopet".
I am a Indonesian. 🇮🇩
Thank you for this video. Thanks to all concerned people . Be safe always.
Fantastic work exposing these criminals
I am curious, if a pickpocket gets arrested. Do they get a fine or actually go to jail in Spain?
Just a fine unfortunately.. that’s why it’s such an issue
The one time in Barcelona my elderly dad was done in the escalator trick. guy in front drops his phone bends over to pick it up while the group behind all pile up behind my dad ...looks like a silly accident comotion, even i was laughing watching it.
Until he realised his wallet was gone...And yeh he had it in his backpocket!! doh .appreciate the channel man x
I remember visiting Barcelona as a child in the 80s. One couple actually got strong arm robbed. Our tour group was on alert the rest of the time there.
I hope that all of Spain, France, Italy and Turkey will be cleared of these fraudulent activities and we will start living decent and honorable lives as good people. UA-cam is the best tool to help us with this.👏👏👏😄💃👏👏👏
Barcelona is an amazing city.
I went there two years ago in august, visit a friend who lives there and it's a good month to visit the city.
There are many turists,but many locals are on vacations and the metro is not that full.
Puedo ver al pueblo de Chile avergonzados de estos carteristas
Tienes toda la razón
Que verguenza, soy chileno y siento que por culpa de esos pocos sujetos quedamos todos mancillados. No veo argentinos o uruguayos o paragyayos o brasileños robando en los metros de europa, pero si chilenos...

I went to Barcelona I put a lock on my backpack, phone and valuables stayed in my bag until I needed to get them out.
Rome is exactly the same. City administrators, politicians, the police, and their families should be obligated to use the public transport system, and you’ll soon see how quickly they will change this primitive and barbaric jungle.

Great job Elliot! Thanks for exposing the pickpocketers!
80 years ago a small man with slick haircut and a little mustache had some very good ideas on how to handle these types.
Ugh planning on traveling to Barcelona in June and now I’m anxiety ridden! Traveled all over Europe but have never felt this anxious about a city. 😣 Thank you for the informative video.
Dont come, it is dangerous... dont come
Dont be anxious! Just be careful!!! And enjoy it! Its a great city!
I got my whole camera bag stolen in Barcelona. Definitely ruined my trip. Thanks for doing this
We are facing the same here in Italy, the thieves are often pregnant, if you are pregnant you can’t be incarcerated.
Great video! great job!
As much as I love our Siesta time, we really don't need that during the cooler weather, in the high heat that's why we actually (excuse;) to take our Siesta time, but from fall to spring that's really not necessary, especially with issues like that happening.....

I’ve been to Barcelona 4times and I’m going again in august.. I’ve never had a problem with pickpockets etc but I will be very alert, guess it’s luck of the draw!
In Jakarta, caught pickpockets are severely beaten before being released. Once you shout at them, a lot of people will help run after and catch them.
Good Job!! Thank you for telling us the story!!🙂🙂🙂
Hi Elliot, all I can say thank you so much for keeping the tourists safe.
I lived in Barca for 6 months & and it's a real problem. Keep valuables close & be alert, like in any major city. We used to buy cheap wallets & drop them infront of a picket pocket..... When the pickpocket guys would pick up the wallet, we'd laugh at them., as it was empty. 😊LAS Ramblas is where they hunt also, funny thing is thats where there is a big police station! Dont eat or drink on this street as its overpriced.
GOOD uck on almost 100k subs.
Thank you very much for your hard work to make Spain safe and peaceful. You are really a hero for all visitors and also for the local.
Thanks for this amazing vlog, Elliot!

A few years back a group of us were on the train and saw a guy swipe a girl’s purse… worse thing for him was we all saw and we beat the shit out of him… some will say that’s bad but I personally especially after seeing that 2nd guy just can’t see how you would t wanna beat them up. Thanks for bringing these ppl to the light and help those that go to these places to be aware of the possibility of getting robbed… too keep their belongings safe 🙏🏽
21:55 hahaha
Lady in 1:32 is completely wrong. Thieves have only good life in Spain, France, maybe a little bit in Germany, because they have weak law.
For example in Poland, Dubai or Japan pickpocketing doesn't exist.
Doesn't exist in Australia either. Mass immigration is the blame for pickpockets, etc, and unfortunately, our government is letting in masses, so my beautiful country will probably end up the same😢
The first 2 pickpockets are Chilean... because of the way they speak... using only Chilean idioms and with a perfect Chilean accent...
True givers to their community! Small heroes make big differences!
