Discussion Beware of Thieves at Budapest Train Station

I wanted to share a recent experience we had at a train station in Budapest that left us quite shaken. We were enjoying our time in the city when we encountered some thieves boarding our train. It was a crowded situation, and we quickly realized that we weren't alone in our worry. I think it’s crucial for travelers to stay vigilant, especially in busy areas. Has anyone else had similar experiences in Budapest or other cities? What precautions do you take to avoid pickpockets while traveling?
