In December 1968 was the "300 Million Yen Robbery" in Japan. A man mimicked a bike cop, stopped an armored truck, removed the driver, drove off with $817,000, and that man was never found. It was (and is) the biggest heist in Japan ever. (This is the 'police' bike he used.)

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.
