How to unlock the Kleptomaniac achievement in Assassin's Creed II - Definitive Guide
Although you can pickpocket from the start of the game, you don’t learn this ability until the memory ‘Fitting In’ during DNA Sequence 2. To pickpocket someone, while walking around, hold to Fast Walk and just bump into people. You will get anywhere from 1 to 25ƒ. Make sure you only pickpocket 5 or 6 people then you need to either blend in or escape since someone you just pickpocketed might find you and provoke a fight, possibly alerting the guards.
Just keep doing this over the course of your playthrough and you should have it in no time.
To pickpocket money simply walk and hold the button when near people. You will slip your hand in their pockets and take their money. You will get about 10 Florins per person you steal from. Make sure not to stay near the person you just stole from or they will alert the guards. Just continue to steal from people until you've gotten the trophy. Below is a video of how it is done. The only difference is instead of pressing A to steal, push instead. Thanks Subscribe 2 GAM3VIDZ for the video.
