I had only been in Paris for 15 mins, on the first metro train I stepped onto a girl was snatching a woman's bag. The girl was held by people on board the train but was clearly working in a group as several other girls freed her and helped her escape from the train before the transport could be alerted. Keep your valuables very secure before taking the metro.

I speak limited French but tried hard to ask politelty and correctly for train tickets only to find the vendor seriously unhelpful and very rude. Finally a kindly French man helped me purchase my tickets only to have the Vendor be very rude to him for helping me. Customer service with a serious snarl.
