PARIS, France (CBS) Two teens allegedly took a page out of the New Orleans Mardi Gras book and took to flashing their breasts to get money from unsuspecting men using ATM machines, according to French police.

That must have been one titillating line-up.

Police say that on Aug. 7 two teenage girls approached a man using an ATM in central Paris and tried to distract him by waving a newspaper in his face and asking for money, CNN reported.

When that didn't work one of the girls allegedly bared her breasts and grabbed the man's genitals while the other girl withdrew 300 euros (over $300) from the machine before making their getaway, according to the news network.

The two girls are in police custody and will be charged as juveniles because they are under 18, the Paris prosecutor said. They are also suspected in two other similar robberies on Aug. 17 where they are believed to have made off with a total of 400 euros (over $500).

I guess once they figured out what worked they stuck with it. Good job?
