wasn't my wallet, but some homeless guy had some guy's wallet, using the credit card to buy parking tickets at the parking lot beside Ebisu on Robson, and trying to get people parking there to give him a couple bucks or whatever in exchange for a ticket. Pretty awkward as the machine is right beside the path to get to Ebisu, and he was just standing there pretty much refusing to let people buy their own tickets; so much as to just give you a ticket if you told him you didn't have any money for him

anyways, I rambled, hopefully whoever's wallet that was didn't have to pay for those tickets, and yeh, before that it never registered to me that it pickpocketing went on in vancouver

that's why my wallet is always in a zippered pocket in my jacket (i'm always wearing one) or in the summer, in some sorta velcro'd up pocket.

Wow, I hope the credit card company was watching cuz it's pretty obvious that the card had been compromised if it's being used to purchase one parking ticket after another...
