Robber Emoji Copy Paste

Q: What can I send instead of a robber emoji?

Robber, the pair at the top: Ninja, then Money bag. CLDR files Ninja under stealth, hidden and secret. For a jewel thief there is Supervillain with Gem stone; for a joke, Cat burglar. None is official: they are this site's arrangements of real emoji.

Unicode has no robber emoji: copy the Ninja with a money bag, or pick another stand-in.

Copy a robber made of parts

For robber emoji copy and paste, tap the big pair or any tile: a combo copies as one string. Pick a skin tone under More options and the ninja takes it in Robber, Burglar and The heist, as do the supervillains and the officer. Search knows CLDR, Unicode's search words for each emoji, so sly finds Ninja, Raccoon and Smirking face and nothing else.

What CLDR files near the word

A few search words come close. Criminal belongs to Supervillain and its two forms alone. Crime belongs to Fingerprint, loot to Treasure chest, plunder to Pirate flag and crook to Hook. Fingerprint is from Emoji 16.0 and Treasure chest from 17.0, so a device that has not caught up shows an empty box.

Tips

The friendliest theft on the page is You stole my heart: Ninja, then Red heart.
For a bill that is far too high, send Daylight robbery: Sun, then Money with wings.
$_$ is plain ASCII and survives anywhere. ಠ_ಠ borrows a Kannada letter for each eye, and (¬_¬) is made of two not signs.

Questions and answers

Is there a robber emoji?

No. In Unicode's emoji list, version 18.0, no emoji name and no CLDR search word is robber, thief, burglar, bandit, steal, theft, heist or outlaw. That is why this page leads with a pair you can paste, not a single character.

What can I send instead of a robber emoji?

Robber, the pair at the top: Ninja, then Money bag. CLDR files Ninja under stealth, hidden and secret. For a jewel thief there is Supervillain with Gem stone; for a joke, Cat burglar. None is official: they are this site's arrangements of real emoji.

Is there a handcuffs or jail emoji?

No emoji name or CLDR search word is handcuffs, jail or prison. The nearest is Broken chain, the only emoji CLDR files under cuffs: Chains joined to Collision, from Emoji 15.1, so an older device shows the two parts. CLDR files arrest under Police officer.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-19, not typed by hand. There is no robber emoji: the script searched every emoji name in emoji-test.txt, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt) and every search word in the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml, main branch) for robber, thief, burglar, bandit, steal, theft, heist, outlaw, mugger, shoplift, pickpocket, handcuff, jail and prison, and found nothing. The 34 single emoji here, their names, code points, skin tones and Emoji version numbers come from emoji-test.txt; names are the CLDR short names printed in that file, in sentence case. The search words quoted in the notes are from the CLDR annotations. The group The nearest words CLDR has is every emoji to which that file gives the search word criminal, crime, crook, loot, plunder or sly: 10, skin tone forms not counted. The parts of Pirate flag, Black cat, Broken chain and Judge are read from their sequences, with formal character names from UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt). Wikipedia's List of emoticons (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_emoticons) records ε=ε=ε=┌(;*´Д`)ﾉ as running, （･∀･)つ⑩ as carrying money, ಠ_ಠ as the look of disapproval and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ as a shrug; the other text items are common spellings and no source is claimed for them. Every character in a text item was checked against UnicodeData.txt, and a label that names a character uses its name from that file. The 5 robbers, the 9 scenes and their names are this site's own, as is the choice of every group after the second. No weapon appears anywhere in the list, on purpose. All sources were checked on 2026-09-19.
