A man’s iPhone was stolen from a coffee shop in Romford.
The 27-year-old had left the phone on a chair in Starbucks, The Brewery, on Tuesday, January 15, at about 11.30am.
Two white men started talking to him about foreign money and one of them placed a piece of paper over the iPhone – before picking up both paper and phone and making off.
Call the police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 if you have any information about this or any other crime.
