Purloiner (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thief

'purloiner' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for thief that I've seen before include "Burglar, say" , "One with taking ways" , "Unlawful taker" , "A robber or pickpocket" , "'Taffy was a - - '" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
