Misled by phishing email (was £10,000 for a tourist visa now?)
He's saying that maybe someone is trying to scam YOU, not the other way around. @BritTimhas suggested there may be data leaks in the Thai e-visa system.

Immigration does not issue visas, the Consular Affairs section of each Thai Embassy does. They're governed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, not the Royal Thai Police Immigration Bureau.

Is it okay to walk naked chest in the streets?
Of course you can, I see shirtless farang quite often down the Si Lom area in the busy season. Nobody gives a rat's, or if they do they keep their opinions to themselves.

Go for it, give the curtain twitchers something to tut tut about. As for being considered "loso" how does that old saw go ... "sticks and stones"

Where to find whole cooked roast/rotisserie chicken?
Where I'm from we don't need to bother with all that. Lebanese charcoal chicken, garlic sauce, tabouleh and hot chips from Western Sydney beats your country roast hands down.

What does this sign at the gold shop mean?
You'd have yourself a lot of trouble if you learnt how to use Google Lens live translate function. I'm lost in Thailand without it.

They're happy to leave consenting adults alone, just don't shout about it from the rooftops like foreigners are wont to do. Plus the other 'considerations' that come with the territory.

What's so good about Thailand?
I think Bogs is slowly unraveling. Should we send the men in white coats yet, or enjoy the trainwreck for just a little longer?

Retirement visa from an agent
sounds like the bent IOs have pumped the price following the Chinese visa debacle, as expected. so why are you blaming the agency and making false claims about them holding you hostage? you're free to use a different agent any time you like. 18,000 is a reasonable price given the circumstances. in Pattaya it'll cost you 12,500 + 1,600 if your Bangkok Bank branch is not in Patts/Chonburi. if you don't have a BBL account then it'll cost another 3,700 or 5,000-odd depending on your age to open a new account. I forget the age ranges, maybe up to 60 for the cheaper price (because bank insurance). 90 day reports are 100 baht. of course you've got to physically present yourself in Pattaya for the renewal and you'll have to mail your passport to the agent for the TM47. If you're in the south then obviously there are travel costs, so all up you probably won't be better off by using a Pattaya agent rather than your current one.

Gmail on Smartphone.
My guess is because it's a Samsung, is a known issue for that brand. I experience it on both my S21+ and S22+ devices, no known fix. If I'm not mistaken the OP just bought a new Sammy phone.

Yeah, better to spend your money on cheap hotels in one horse towns and then claim it's as good as a villa in Tuscany.
