British holidaymakers have been warned to beware of Spain’s vile ‘spit thieves’

The criminals spit on their unsuspecting victims and then use the distraction to offer assistance in cleaning up the mess.

He then pretends to be a Good Samaritan, offering to clean up the saliva he left on her hair. The woman quickly realizes something has hit her and turns around, but the cunning criminal anticipates her reaction and swiftly turns away, assuming a facade of innocence. The second incident depicted in the released footage mirrors the same deplorable tactic. A young man with a small suitcase and a laptop is targeted by a man, believed to be the same perpetrator, on a Barcelona metro platform.

Accompanying the video footage, a spokesperson for the regional Mossos d'Esquadra police force issued a warning, urging people to remain vigilant and wary of any distractions caused by strangers, whether on public transport, in the street, or elsewhere. The message emphasized the importance of keeping personal belongings under control at all times.
