Traveling through South America, in a shthole little town on the border between Peru and Ecuador
No kidding. I got robbed in a taxi between Tumbes (Peru) and the Ecuador border as well. I talked my way out of there though, gave them $100 and they let me go with the rest of my possessions.
I was also robbed in a taxi in Lima once (I was living there) but that was more hard core with guns and sh-t involved.

I almost put up a
but maybe this isn't one of those instances where "hey, me too!" is appropriate haha. That town is filled with pickpockets and thieves. So is Mancora for that matter but I still love that town, very fun times there. I thought by that Tumbes incident I knew how to look out for myself and my stuff having been in South America for over a year, but I guess not. I hate the Peruvian taxi system so much, I never feel safe in any of the taxis there because even if they look all official you never know.

Colombia has a bad rap but I always felt a lot safer there than I did in Peru. Even though I lived in Lima and got used to many of its nice and not-so-nice quirks, the city can be pretty intimidating. I only spent a little over 2 weeks in Colombia, and mostly on the Caribbean coast but I did visit Cali and Medellin briefly (didn't have time for Bogota.) My friend got mugged in Medellin though so I guess it's down to luck and circumstances. But I never felt afraid in Colombia.

Only due to my own stupidity.
Leaving car unlocked, not securing wallet when in Rome, leaving house with just screens down, not glass.
All when I was single and clueless.

Working at a pizza place years ago and this dude came in about 20 minutes after we closed, a bandana pulled over his face and a shotgun pointed straight at the poor young girl behind the counter.
Only she got the better of him. She didn't flinch, didnt blink or squeal or shiver. Brave young lady just reached into the register and laid two stacks of cash on the counter and told the jerk to take it and get out.
The two stacks were all the 1's and 5's. Homie ran out of the place and left about $3500 bucks in 10s, 20s, 50s and 100s in the register. And I had just walked in from my last delivery and had over a thousand in cash in my pocket.
The jolt was intense tho. I remember staring at the tip of the shotgun and thinking, 'that does
not
have one of those orange plastic toygun tips on it, this is really going down'. -

Yikes!
And from that moment on you have dedicated your non-IMDb life to bringing justice to, and cleaning up the streets of, your city/town/village!
To paraphrase Oedipus, Hamlet, Lear, and all those guys, "I wish I had known this some time ago.
