Take note wannabe shoplifters and thieves in Constantia, you’re doing it all wrong.

I’m sure you remember THIS VIDEO of the lady who filled her bag with goodies at an upmarket Constantia gift shop, her face splashed all over the internet as friends choked on their prawn sandwiches and revoked her invite to the next Tokai orgy.

That video you’re looking at up top shows a couple in Ballito falling victim to what is a rather efficient double act. The video commentary gives you a decent play-by-play, with Tony Psaila talking to News24:

“We had been shopping for dinner on Friday night and we were looking at a deli window when one woman distracted us,” he said.

“She had started mumbling something to us in a language I didn’t understand and as we moved closer to try and hear what she was saying her accomplice came behind us and slipped my wife’s bag off the trolley.”

Now they did manage to nab one of the pair, although the lady with the bag made it out of the centre and into a waiting car.

All in all what looks like a successful heist, making off with R2 000 cash and a few other items of value.

Remember snitches get stitches.
