flash rob
A flash rob, also known as a multiple offender crime or flash mob robbery , is an organized form of theft in which a group of participants enter a retail shop or convenience store en masse and steal goods and other items. Typically, store workers and employees in these cases quickly become overwhelmed by the large number of participants and thus, are unable to stop the theft.
The National Retail Federation does not classify these crimes as "flash mobs" but rather "multiple offender crimes" that utilize "flash mob tactics". In a report, the NRF noted, "multiple offender crimes tend to involve groups or gangs of juveniles who already know
each other, which does not earn them the term "flash mob"."〔
==Etymology==
The term often used by the media for this type of event is "Flash rob", which originates from flash mobs,〔 where a group of people assemble quickly, perform an unusual and seemingly pointless act, and then disperse.
