sideeki, I had a similar experience in the French Quarter. While walking back to the hotel with my daughter's friend and a lady came up, grabbed my crotch, and said she wanted to give me a bj. I backed up and said no; but after about 3-4 steps I realized she had picked my pocket... 3 hundreds, 2 twenties, and misc smaller bills. I turned around and she was no where in sight.
I'm not proud to be such a sucker, just saying folks should watch out.
