CHRISTMAS revellers are urged to be wary of a female confidence trickster with expensive tastes operating in Carrick hostelries.
The thief with a liking for Coco Chanel perfume has already struck twice in the borough.
According to Carrick PSNI, her modus operandi seems to be targeting hotels and bars where she befriends members of the public and steals their purse/handbag.
On one occasion she spent over three hours with a couple prior to stealing a purse. A police, spokesperson said it would appear she has a lot of cash and traveller’s cheques on her person.
She is described as 5' 3", slim / medium build with shoulder length bushy hair (similar to the singer Kate Bush), pale skin and a Scottish accent. She wears Coco Chanel perfume, black wire rimmed glasses on top of her head, a long dark coloured coat and fishnet tights.
