点评:⚠️ WARNING TO ALL TOURISTS: Active Currency Sleight-of-Hand Scammers on Ground Floor
Please be extremely vigilant while visiting ICONSIAM. On September 24 at around 18:30 on the Ground Floor near the restrooms, my companion and I were targeted by an organized duo (a man in his 40s and a woman in her late 20s). They strike up friendly conversation claiming to be recent arrivals from America asking for directions, then pull out foreign notes asking what Indian or Asian currency looks like.
While one person actively distracts you with conversation, the other handles your wallet/purse under the guise of "curiosity" or "taking photos of foreign notes," deftly stealing large bills (they managed to steal 60,000 JPY via sleight of hand before returning the wallet).
To other visitors: NEVER take out your wallet, show cash, or hand your purse to strangers inside the mall, no matter how polite or well-dressed they seem.
To ICONSIAM Management: Please increase security surveillance and review CCTV footage near the Ground Floor restroom area—organized thieves should not be allowed to prey on your customers.
翻译:⚠️ 致所有游客的警告:购物中心一楼存在活跃的货币诈骗团伙
游览ICONSIAM时请务必保持高度警惕。9月24日下午6点30分左右,我和同伴在一楼洗手间附近遭遇了一对合伙作案的骗子——一名40多岁的男子和一名20多岁的女子。他们主动上前攀谈,自称刚从美国来,向我们问路;随后便掏出外币,询问我们印度或亚洲其他国家的货币长什么样。当一个人用闲聊故意分散你的注意力时,另一个人则以“好奇”或“想拍摄外国纸币”为借口,趁机拿走你的钱包;他们手法娴熟地偷走了大面额纸币(最终在归还钱包前成功窃取了6万日元)。
给其他游客的建议:无论商场里的陌生人看起来多么有礼貌或衣着考究,都切勿掏出钱包、展示现金,更不要把包包交给他们。致ICONSIAM管理层:请加强安保措施,并仔细查看一楼洗手间附近的监控录像。绝不允许有组织的窃贼趁机侵害您的顾客。
