I was with my friend in Paris and he read on the net about money getting stolen out of the hotels so he insisted in keeping the entire 2000 Euros on him. The next day he got all of it ripped off on the Metro.
Does not surprise me at all. I know of no other European capital where tourists are targets for theft on such a systematic scale. Both I and Michael Reichmann suspects that it was some kind of hotel inside job, even.
When in Paris: be careful. Use the hotel room safe, dress down and carry few valuables.
