City Bonds Robbery In May 1990, a messenger was carrying bearer bonds when he was mugged.  Since bearer bonds are as good as cash, the person who mugged him was  quite lucky. The worth of these bonds has been estimated at 292 million  pounds at that time. <img src="http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/8506/citybondsrobbery1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 8. Boston Museum Two men disguised themselves as police officers and told the security  guards at a particular Boston museum that they were doing a routine  check. They took 81 minutes and stole about 12 paintings which were  worth 300 million dollars 20 years ago <img src="http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/7351/bostonmuseum.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 7. Baghdad Bank Robbery This bank robbery was carried out in 2007 in Iraq by 3 guards who worked  at the bank. They managed to empty out about 282 million dollars and it  has been speculated that they took the help of some militias. The money  was never recovered and the media did not think it necessary to cover  this robbery as much as they should have. <img src="http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/6325/baghdadbankrobbery.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 6. Knightsbridge Security Deposit Valerio Viccei was a well known thief who moved to England from Italy  and decided to continue his ‘trade’. He, along with his gang, emptied  out safe deposits and left the bank with about 174 million dollars.  However, he was arrested because he came back to England to get his  Ferrari and was sentenced to over 20 years in prison. Unfortunately, he  was killed in the year 2000. <img src="http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/1411/knightsbridgesecurityde.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 5. British Bank of the Middle East In 1970, a terrorist group called PLO needed money so they decided to  rob a number of banks and the most significant one was the British Bank  of the Middle East. They stole gold, current and stocks worth over 25  million pounds which would be worth about 100 million dollars today. <img src="http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/8300/britishbankofthemiddlee.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 4. Schiphol Airport Heist This diamond robbery is considered to be the largest of its kind as gems  worth over 118 million dollars were stolen. While a majority of these  robberies involved fantastic plans and remarkable execution, this one  didn’t. Their basic plan was to smash, grab and run. Four men carried it  out and several have been arrested on the grounds that they were  associated with the crime. <img src="http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/5183/schipholairportheist.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 3. United California Bank Robbery A group headed by Amil Dinsio robbed the United California Bank. They  cleaned out the safe deposit vault and managed to remove about 30  million dollars. While this may not seem like too much after going  through this list, fact is that this robbery took place in 1972 and this  money will probably be worth over 100 million dollars today. Even  though the details are not clear, one can safely say that it was a great  robbery! <img src="http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/8753/unitedcaliforniabankrob.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 2. Antwerp Diamond Centre Those diamonds that are uncut are made to go through a process that is  carried out at the Antwerp  Diamond Center. Leonardo Notarbartolo headed  a gang which managed to empty out 123 deposit boxes out of 189. The  gems they stole were worth 100 million dollars and were never found. <img src="http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/5820/antwerpdiamondcenter.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> 1.
