You've been warned

A common mistake by people using the bathroom is to hang their jacket on the hook conveniently located on the stall door.

The thief waits a few seconds till you get to a point where giving chase isn't going to happen anytime soon, sticks his hand over the stall door and legs it with your jacket in hand.

If you're travelling this can be disastrous as most people keep their tickets and passport inside their coat pocket for easy access while boarding and passing through the ubiquitous security checkpoints.

Either keep wearing it, or use the handicap stall and stick it on the railing provided inside but don't hang it behind the door.
