....modern Robinhoods !

"Inside Man" movie's last scene goes like this:
"...we see Frazier (Denzel Washington) go home to his girlfriend. While he takes off his gun and removes his badge from his pocket, he pulls out a diamond. He suddenly realizes how it got there. The person who had brushed against him earlier on that day in the bank was Russell (Clive Owen) himself, and somehow he had slipped the diamond into Frazier's pocket. Frazier smiles, realizing that he can now marry his girlfriend, as he has a proper ring to offer her."

When I watched this (all time favorite) movie, I marked this scene as "Typical Hollywood". When I was reading Readers Digest and stumble upon definition of one word - "Put Pocketing” means is the act of secretly putting money into someone’s pocket without them noticing.
This started in London as a publicity stunt by TalkTalk Communication Company.
Very nice and cleaver idea for publicity !
To make this reality, they hire (?) few former (?) Pick-Pocker and assign this responsibility to give money to common man in this hard time so that they can have few happy moments.

If you caught them while putting money then they will take it back ! ( Funny segment is here)
