Interesting, but not surprising. These electronic devices not only give thieves something to steal, but distracts the target prior to the theft.

I've become very skeptical of "studies" recently, as I think our society has lost (or never had) the ability to tell the difference between them and science.

Not that it is helpful to you to know what I think about studies, but there it is. :-)
