Last month while I was shopping in one of the department stores where I shop all of the time; I had my purse in the cart.  While I was not looking someone took my wallet out of my purse.  I went to the store manager right away but they could not find out who took it.  He called the police and when they got to the store they took all of my information down because they said they were concerned about Identity Theft more than anything else.  The officer told me to be sure and call to cancel all of my credit cards and other personal information.
