People steal identities all the time. It does not require reading a passport rfid. Nor does reading a passport rfid make it any easier.
It may be true in the future that muggers will carry rfid scanners. They may be small enough that they could be concealed in the clothing, and would perhaps use a projection system to display the data inside the thief's retina where no one else could see what he was doing. But if you're worried about real life violence *today*, then you'll want to stop going to grocery stores or worse - don't ever stop to fill up your gas tank!
