Beware: Phone Theft Attempt at Bel bus stand
as to warn everyone after a close call with a phone thief near Bel Bus Stand. I'm a Cognizant employee and have unfortunately experienced phone theft before (I lost my phone previously at Hebbal stop—incident logged under 507ps on Nov 31). This time, while I was at Bel Circle Bus Stand, a similar situation almost repeated itself todayy(14 febraury 8:30pm) in bel bus stand Here's what happened: - I was on a call in Bluetooth buds and my phone was partially out of my jeans’ slant pocket. - I noticed my phone slipping and immediately recorded a video of a man approaching from behind. - As I was recording, he tried to get my attention by asking the bus driver to stop the bus so he could get off. However, the bus door had already closed, and he ended up getting off at the very next stop (SBI stop). - After he left, I asked the conductor if he had noticed anything unusual. The passengers in front confirmed that they saw him pulling at my phone. - The thief’s behavior was odd—he kept trying to avoid my gaze, I'm sharing this to urge everyone to be extra cautious, especially when climbing into the bus or while distracted on calls. Keep a firm grip on your phone and double-check your pockets. Stay alert out there, bengaluru4
