The do over here to, but it's kind of like Jackass, going into a store and shitting in a display toilet, or going into shops and having boxing matches. That might not be illegal as such, but it would involve a word from the cops.
We have a show over here where some guy pretends he is from a bank and asks for Bank Details.
The police set traps exactly like that. Leave valuables in a car and wait for someone to steal them, then they arrest them. It's the same as that, only I'm not sure what the show does in the end like let them go as they have been shamed.
