Might work with beginners, and those that dont have the skill to be pickpockets. Real 'pro' pickpickets will not even care about a sharp pencil.

If the sharp pencil were to move/turn and you were to fall/run into someone or something ….....
I hate to think what the pencil might prick

Report it immediately - you could be held liable for incurred charges if someone else uses it.

I hope you have got a new phone by now. But I dont find anything strange. If a thief wouldnt steal you phone then who would do that?

Sorry a very BAD joke...

Yes. Not really amusing. I just find it strange that people may have such low moral standards. I understand that in certain situations people may be forced to steal food because they're starving but stealing someone else's phone/laptop. Etc. I find it disgusting

Well, actually it might not always be a thief who stole it. I have read a lot of times in newspapers about teenagers stealing these expensive gadgets just because their parents would not buy for them. But fortunately, I have been through this only once, when someone stole my wrist watch from a hotel room where I was staying for a friends wedding. I could not believe that this could happen in a five star hotel.

By definition a thief is someone who steals, so if someone stole it they are a thief.

you took it a bit on words. I mean to say someone who is not a reported offender. I understand the definition. I just cant explain it in words. I aint a native english speaker after all.

I don't LG. It has a problem of text retardation. Howerver, other functions work well.
