I think I was pickpocketed during lunch! UPDATED!!!!!!

I went out for a walk like I've been doing recently with one of my BM that works near me. We went to Central Park. I had my camera in one jacket pocket, my wallet and cellphone in the other.

I just got back to the office and my wallet and cellphone are gone I just spoke to her and she doesn't remember even seeing either. I don't know what to do. I'm on hold with the bank to cancel my card, gotta call my credit card company also.

I AM SO UPSET!!!!! I keep wondering if I was pickpocketed or if they somehow fell out (but how would we not hear a big ol wallet and cell phone fall? We always walk on the concrete paths.

UPDATE: That one spot I mentioned where I stopped and put my jacket over the railing??? I just went back there and FOUND MY WALLET AND PHONE! No one would have ever found them if they didn't know they were there - it was about 8 inches of bushes and I just stuck my hand around and found my wallet! My FH was calling my cell phone so I heard it vibrating and luckily found that too - never would have found it otherwise.

So thankfully I wasn't pickpocketed - good thing I went back to the park to doublecheck!!!

Too bad I already cancelled my bank card. Oh well, no problem. I should be getting a new one this week.

I hope you find it but if not there is always the possibility that someone might return it. I know it's unlikely but I lost my wallet in the snow on 23rd street 2 years ago and someone actually found it and returned it with everything in it- so it does happen. Have hope!

I hope that you are able to find your cellphone and your wallet. Don't forget to call your cellphone company too!
