The AFLAC Scam
Watch out for this scam. Police say that the gang is usually comprised of four members: one adult and three younger ones.
While the three younger ones, all appearing very sweet and innocent, divert their "mark" (or intended target) with a show of friendliness, the fourth -- the eldest -- sneaks in from behind the person's back to expertly rifle through his or her pockets and/or purses & bags for any valuables being carried.
The picture below shows the gang in operation.
