This woman's quick-thinking when she had her bag stolen from off her shoulder meant she got away with more than her attacker.

The man spotted the lone woman walking along the road with her bag over her arm as she looked down at her mobile phone.

He pulls up and jumps off his moped to grab the woman's bag and runs away.

As the shocked woman realises what has just happens she starts to look around and realises the thief has left her bike.

She then runs towards it and makes a quick getaway without her bag but with a new vehicle.

The footage filmed in China has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times online.

Some viewers believe the footage to be fake, with one saying: "This is so fake.. Why would he not get back on that thing."

Although another added: "So what if it's "fake" or "edited" at least this made you smile."
