The trauma that I had from horrible incident happened to me two days back is still clinging in myself. I already have phobia of seeing two people riding a motorbike. I've been almost killed and robbed all my belongings by the culprits. Yesterday, the culprits were caught one was critically wounded the other jailed. The considerable thing, few of my things being robbed were recovered but mostly are gone. Have you ever had this kind of incident that your things taken recovered back again to you? Can I have your share on this? Thanks and let us be vigilant always because nowadays we are not safe anymore even in our own yard. Mobhomeir here...

Hello mob, I am sorry to hear about the bad things happened to you. I relieved to know that people caught and recovered some lost things. Here in our place there is no chance to get anything back if you lost something. You lost something by snatchers means you lost the same for ever. No need to keep the hope alive. There are many stories I heard and many of them are horrible. One lady she locked her kids in home and went to fetch some vegetable near by shop. (she needs only five minutes for buying the things) The moment she stepped out somebody throw something on her face and she fainted but had some conscious and resisted the snatching of her gold chain. The snatcher got angry and wounded her face with knife. She is recovering now but needed plastic surgeries, yeah her face become horrible. This is only one story. Take care Mob, you are right we are not safe anywhere.

Hello sree I miss you, where have you've been these days? Yeah it is true I was robbed and the next day after I recovered few of my things taken but mostly were already gone. That was my most horrible experience. The problem with me was I was just too confident of myself ignoring some precautions in spite of so many warnings by our local authorities. Yes..nowadays there's no more safe place to go except inside your house. Take care too my friend. Mobhomeir here..

I hate to hear you were a victem of such a crime. I have never been but I can see why you would develop a phobia from such an incident. I am glad that the criminals were caught and brought to justice but it really doesn't change what happened to you. I did have an incident where I had a car wreck. I was sitting and waiting to turn when I saw a car come rushing toward me in the rear view mirror and wasn't slowing down. He hit me and totaled my car and cause me a little injury. For a very longtime after that..when I would drive and see a car approaching me in the mirror...I would get very nervous and afraid. I amm over that now...it has been a longtime. I know it doesn't compare to your experience but maybe one day you won't have the phobia anymore. Take care.

Yes, I have had to, you just learn to move on. That's what you do. Life isn't set in stone, and people will be people. People will rob you blind if you aren't looking.

Hello mob... That was terrible. Good thing you were not harmed by those bad elements and some of your belongings were recovered. I have not yet experienced such an incident and I hope and pray that I wont really experience it. You're right, we should all be vigilant always for our own safety.

Dear friend, I have been taken my wallet from hand forcefully when I had a tour in lakes of South India, the person jumped into the lake and swam across to the other side of the bank. He took all money in it and threw the wallet on the bank. Later I had to get a boat to take my wallet on other side of bank which contained my ID card also.

That was a great problem my friend. You said the culprit get all the money, where did you get money to pay the boat you were using? Had you recovered your wallet?

hi daddy mob! somehow its a good news that some of your things are already recovered and those bad guys are caught. when i heard the news on tv it really comes to my mind that those guys might be the one who's responsible on hat happened to you, and yeah we are not wrong. i hate those kinds of people who don't live fairly. well i hope that they will not get out on jail anymore and i hope you can still recover the other things that they get from you especially your license and your marketing tools. on my part, yeah i also experienced that twice. when i as still in my parents house, e let this child to sleep in our house for a night because we pitied him that he don't have a place to sleep that day, but surprisingly when we woke up in the morning, the child is already gone together with my mom's money, my cellphone and necklace. we were able to recover the necklace and the cellphone because when we call my number, good thing that the one holding the phone let us know where the child is and return the cellphone to us, but the money is gone. and the other incident is the one that you already know, when our laptop was stolen and after a month its back. hehe
