This is very true, or the pickpockets and the Romas.
On my flight back to the US last week, Air France changed my seat at the last minute. When I looked over to my previously assigned seat they had put up a curtain that blocked the last 4 rows. They sat 8 fully Bukhara women in the seats, BEHIND THE CURTAIN!
My advice for everyone in Europe, no matter the city.....Dress like a local, walk with purpose, don't talk to anyone who has a clipboard and asks if you speak English, and when you see a Felafel sign, walk the other way.

I lived on the local economy, while in Germany in the military. Let my hair grow as long as possible. Wore locally purchased clothes and shoes. And I spoke the language.
Way back then American shoes were a dead giveaway. I got a pair of european chukka boots, suede, really cool then and now.
