Mumbai, Feb 11: A pickpocket thief who robbed the wallet of a railway commuter withdrew Rs 14000 from the victim’s account as the victim had kept both ATM card and Pin number written down in wallet.
In addition to losing the cash in the wallet, the railway commuter who is 45 years old made the thief's work easy as he had written down the pin numbers of all the three cards in his wallet.
Victim Sachin Kore was going to Mumbai Central from Kandivali. When he reached his destination he was surprised to find that his wallet was stolen during the course of the journey. He saw the mobile phone and came to know that the thief had already withdrawn Rs 2000 from his card. Within a few minutes, he received one more msg saying that Rs 10000 is withdrawn from one more card.
Anil Kadam, senior inspector with Borivali GRP said that the victim could not understand how the money was withdrawn and later realized that he had written the pin numbers of the cards and kept that paper inside the wallet.
Borivali police are investigating further.
