They were doing this up here about 3-4 months ago and hit 25 or so homes. One person gets you looking a something in the front and the other walks in and cleans out the jewelry, cash etc. Hit my GF's neighbor. 88 year old WW2 vet and his wife. Married a million years. Stole her wedding ring among a bunch of over stuff.
They eventually caught them but she never got back her ring.
I think somebody tried it at my house but my dog bites if I am home alone and a male approaches me.. I told them to back off my property or get bit.
