>Rafa claimed to have lost around 20 thousand US dollars in cash and valuables that was in a bag

What the fuck? I don't want to blame the victim here, but really, what the fuck?

This doesn't seem to be all that uncommon here; I've read several similar stories--a couple of months ago I read that a woman had been robbed of a bag containing about 40 grand and it was returned to her before she even knew it was missing. It seems to be common for people to bring large sums of cash on cruises to gamble in the casinos. Or they've won it there.

If you were an Internet start-up trying to solve Barcelona's rampant thievery epidemic, what kind of start-up would you be?
