I used to spend a lot of time in Barcelona on business, street crime there is far, far worse than Benidorm.
Ditto: Paris and Milan.
Paris got dipped by the old "aah English, you like football" guy comes up close and pretend to dribble a ball at your feet. You are that preoccupied with watching his feet you don't see his hand going into your pocket ! As soon as I realised I slammed him away but he got 20 euros. Small price to pay to put you back on your guard.
I warned the colleagues I was with, one einstein still lost his watch shaking hands in a bar with a total smiling stranger then his wallet.
Milan a pack of gypsies complete with wailing baby push the kid up in your face with a card with some writing on it. As you are focusing on w t f is going on hands going into your pocket. Still have the dent in my briefcase where I clobbered em'. They got nowt
Our agent said " Welcome to Milan Mr P"
