Thanks to Jessie Seng for sharing her experience.

I feel I need to share mine too so that ladies are aware and be forewarned.

I used to read in the papers of people having this experience which is commonly called “pukau”.
This is what happened and it was at the Arcade at Cineleisure, E-Curve some time ago (before Ikano was named IPC).
I send my son for his music lesson and usually stay on for a movie. We had spare time about half hour before the movie start so we stopped by the arcade for some games. There weren’t many people. My son and his friend were playing the shooting game, the game machines being arranged in a row along the sides of the wall while I sat on a stool opposite them playing the ‘jewel matching’ game. I was not feeling well that evening having cough and fever, about 7pm and had taken my dosage of anti-biotics (this could have contributed to the weakened sense to what was about to happened).

My son called to me for additional coins to continue to play and our conversation may have attracted or alerted the ‘thief/con’ or whatever as I did not see him.

I had my handbag with the sling still on my shoulder and the bag resting on my lap as I played seated and my purse held with my left hand resting on the bag. In a moment, I smelled something like a mix of prayer incense, jasmine and perfume. It smelled very strong and I had the mind to think that how come there is this type of smell in this place.

Next moment, it was time to go and I went for my purse to take the movie tickets out and I could not find my purse. No where at all. Well, the hoolabaloo of searching and reporting followed.

For those who analyse that “how come the ‘smell’ does not affect the perpetrator” – that’s because it is being used by them to be directed to a “victim” – a set intention.
One cannot answer what one cannot comprehend.

I think Jessie Seng was very smart and to have acted bravely.

I tell myself and my friends to be alert and if you smell something like this, to look around and move out. And I’m sharing here as I want as many ladies to know and be aware. Not to be fearful and avoid your activities but be vigilant and know that these type of ‘crime method’ exist.
