My wallet got pickpocketed as I was getting off the bus.

Just cash and ID or ATM/credit card? Call your bank quick.
Just got off the phone with the credit card company, the credit card is blocked. I doubt the ATM is a problem since they don't know the pin.
Best to call it in quick anyway. I'm paranoid about any data leakage - even if they can't use it to withdraw cash, they might be able to get a bit of info about your accounts if they reach a gullible person at your bank.
OMG! Argh, pasko na nga - dala ng matinding pangangailangan .
Thanks Dave, I had the ATM card blocked as well. @Tin, onga e, around this time din ako nawalan ng phone last year. Nabibiktima ako parati pag marami akong dala and siksikan ung bus/mrt >.<
@tintinperez I don’t really carry much cash. Hassle lang ung magpapacancel and replace ng ATM, credit card, etc
stay away if possible with crowded places.. Ingat ngayong holiday..
People also drive a little crazier during the holidays. I wish I owned a tank.
I had my first phone pickpocketed on the MRT when I had my hands full carrying a Mindstorms kit I bought in Shangri-La for the robotics thing. I also had an umbrella out, but couldn't see behind me. That's usually when things like these happen.
sorry to hear that, roy. tuwing holidays, at simula nung na-holdap dati, pera ko laging nasa medyas ko. medyo weird nga lang kung barya…
