A woman will walk up to you and throw her baby (usually a doll) into your arms. While you’re in shock and your hands are occupied holding the baby her accomplices will go through your bag or pocket.

This occurs quite often, usually at the Vatican: while you are catching the baby, a crook will pick your pockets with amazing speed.
