swiper
One who pilfers
A swiper is someone who swipes—whether swiping a credit card, swiping through dating profiles, or swiping something in the sense of stealing it.
The word gained cultural currency through the cartoon fox Swiper in *Dora the Explorer*, whose catchphrase "Swiper, no swiping!" made it familiar to a generation of children.
