Not THAT unique. It’s an old trick. Happened to my parents in Barcelona. Twice. Second time my dad hit one of the thieves on the head with an umbrella.

I agree. This is pure win for the thieves. Both inventive and effective. You can bet there’ll be copycat crimes soon. (Maybe even copycats with cat feces?)

Here is my theory:
1) I’m thinking they are squirting from a roof, or the stuff falls from above, making it harder to figure out it was a person.
2) If the above is correct, no other substance will work as well. Water would be no big deal, and anything else would be too obvious that it was related to the person trying to clean it off.
3) S**t is easy to get. This might not be such a great argument, since they could use mud or something not so nasty but still dirty-looking.
4) Despite the comments saying it’s the oldest trick in the book, I’ve never heard of it, if it really is as rare as I think, then they may have been trying to make some sort of trade mark, like the sticky bandits (home alone movie).
5) They are just plain dumb and couldn’t think of a more dignifying way of stealing money (if there is such a thing as dignifying theft).
6) They have a lot of crap and thought they had to use it somehow.
7) They have been wanting to be on FAIL Blog
Biological hazard! I wonder what other charges can be wrapped up in that. Maybe their punishment should be to put them in a room full of victims with squeeze bottles…
It says the next time you need to withdraw cash at an ATM, expect that ATM to stand for Ass To Mouth. Then punch whoever wants to clean it, if it’s in your power to fight 1 to 4 guys. Otherwise, just do the withdrawal inside a bank.
Actually, that’s a pickpocketing technique that’s been around in Europe for decades. Sometimes it’s mustard or ketchup, but the feces is new one on me.
sorry miss, you got a crap on your shirt
Is that called poo-kakke?
“oh damn, i knew i didn’t the *plomp* this time….” XD
Splash the cash, you’re doing it wrong
*SKAWEEEEEZE!!!!*
Don’t aim at moomin!!
What should I aim at…my squeezer’s gonna go off!
HERE!
*holds bucket up*
Ehm…how’s your aim?
*wipes face with handkerchief*
Not very good, apparently.
Sorry, just read they were using squeeze bottles.
*offers shamwow*
*also offers free shower*

Never a frown, with golden brown ♫
Chocolate Rain
The same crime has a higher price to pay
Chocolate Rain
The judge and jury swear it’s not in the face
♫ He calls her the chocolate girl,
Cause he thinks she melts when he touches her ♫
Yurk!
*SQUEEZE*
*hides chocolate bar and graham crackers*
Oh, HI MOOMIN!!!
*squeezie?*
\(^.~)/
They’d have just spent the money on cr@p anyway, this cuts out the middleman.
Now you’re just spreading some cheekiness
How did they get it in the bottles?
I’d rather not attempt to visualize that.
I textualized it once. But I was young. I needed the money.
I made it into a composition once. Sonata for wind instruments.
I made a song for it once. It sounded very texturized.
Oh god what a horrible image in my mind, and what kind of feces did they use?
I had a wonderful time trying to guess where they were going with this.
Not THAT unique. It’s an old trick. Happened to my parents in Barcelona. Twice. Second time my dad hit one of the thieves on the head with an umbrella.
Until they catch them it appears to be a WIN.
You misspelled WIND.
No its WINDOW.
He’ll WIND up getting beaten with a sparkly pink bat, perhaps?
get out, i’m a PC and WINDOWS was MY idea
Windows original? I didn’t know you trolled FB, Bill.
*wiggledances*
*does WINDmills*
*safety*
*twirls out of room*
I agree. This is pure win for the thieves. Both inventive and effective. You can bet there’ll be copycat crimes soon. (Maybe even copycats with cat feces?)
Went to make a withdrawal, hit with a deposit instead.
What a appalling crapper!!
*caper
♫ I’ll send a squirt into the world
I hope that someone gets my
Crap in a bottle, yeah ♫
That’s a win
So by that comment we can be assured that you like having your clothes stained with sh*t and then your money snatched off you, right?
yes he love it
This scam stinks.
It’s only a fail because they’d save a lot of time just squirting the stuff in their eyes right away. Honestly.
It’s the oldest trick in the book. Very popular in touristic areas.
oooh K@!
*squeeze*
how was Karateeeeee?
You learn much from them I would say
This makes me feel queasy.
Thank you FailBlog Diet!
*blurrgh*
When you use the word “popular” like that, it sounds like tourists visit the place just for the feces-squirting thieves.
I would have said “common”.
Squirting pooh? XD
It is like monkeys throwing feces, but only this time it is for a reason.
I think i know how they got it in the bottle… 4 guys 1 bottle
this is an old trick. i’ve heard of it before. there is nothing new in this world
Absolute fail indeed. Yuck. Gross.
How is this a fail? Sounds like it worked pretty well. Gross, but well.
robber:i dont have pepper spray……..but ive got…….THIS!!!
eurghhhhh!
victim:huh?? what the-
WHY FECES?! you could squirt ANYTHING on people and tell them they had stuff on them and help them clean it off while stealing their money
WTF IS THE MATTER WITH PEOPLE
^ I agree.
^me too

Heard about that on the news
Oh… the old mustard trick… wasn’t this covered in one of The Real Hustle episode… you just squirt mustard on someones coat… oh wait…
this is exactly what i was thinking, they squirted mustard on an unsuspecting person and then offer to help them whilst robbing them blind.
For when don’t you own a gun…
Since canadians aren’t rednecks endoctrined in a climate of fear by their governments
Wait…
They helped clean it off?!
…Awesome. WIN!
creativity WIN!
Biological hazard! I wonder what other charges can be wrapped up in that. Maybe their punishment should be to put them in a room full of victims with squeeze bottles…
Are you trying to be fair? Then the victims should offer to clean it up and then steal something (since they might not have the money at that point).
That may be a good FAIL, HOWEVER , I can’t understand what it says…
It says the next time you need to withdraw cash at an ATM, expect that ATM to stand for Ass To Mouth. Then punch whoever wants to clean it, if it’s in your power to fight 1 to 4 guys. Otherwise, just do the withdrawal inside a bank.
“Sh!!!!t!
” LITERALLY lol
I’m sorry, let me help you clean it up.
Fail? Sounds like a win to me, considering they’re getting away with it.
Victim fail. Criminal win!
I think they meant poop-etrators
Wow, this is old news. How could they not have picked up on this a month ago?
that’s when it was first submitted!
Gotta admit, it’s pretty creative for when you don’t have a gun…
Dad?
I saw a newspaper article whose headline referred to these characters as ‘Thieving Poo Bandits’. I wish I was kidding.
hehehe.. . .BAHAHAHAHA. whoo -wipes tear- thats funny!
Actually, that’s a pickpocketing technique that’s been around in Europe for decades. Sometimes it’s mustard or ketchup, but the feces is new one on me.
More like “crime win”
haha, it would be in toronto.
What a dirty trick…hope the fuzz can handle this.
Gee- kids these days.
30 years ago pick pockets used ketchup in those packets you get a fast food placesfto pull the same crime. And they hung out in airports, not at ATMs.
this has been happening in india for a long time.

I’d say this is a life win though. Would you prefer they held people up with a weapon and killed them?
serious robbery WIN
come here so i can sqeeze some pooh on you!
Hahaha! So funny!
