They criminally pretend to be moving separately, while one of them would approach a target person and ask him/her a question. Whatever the answer to the question might be, he will then reciprocate the gesture (audience given) by offering to assist him as well. Subsequently, the other accomplice will come in and join the conversation with a view to convince the target person. It is through this process the man will end up being dispossessed of his/her either cell phone, cash, laptop computer, ATM card or gold jewelry or any other valuable.

All cases mentioned above are under investigation and will soon be charged be charge to court for prosecution.
