Cutting into people's flesh and taking out an implant will discourage petty/squeamish/opportunity thiefs, furthermore you'd need to know which arm the implant is in and where. I'm not sure about the exact size of the implant but cutting it out in a dark alley from a bloodied wound will certainly take more effort than grabbing a wallet from someone pocket.
More effort -> Less frequency

That's easy. Just swipe your smartphone over someone's arm until it beeps, then use your fingers (or phone's flashlight) to find it. Shouldn't take more than 3 seconds.
