Confuscious

What are you trying to proof? Silly and trolling answers. The "Bitdefender" solution was proposed by a member only a few messages ago and "Bitdefender" may prevent the message from being displayed, it does not prevent the scammer for keep sending his Scams. Only a "Report" can do this. IF the thread is not to your liking, just skip it and go to the next thread.

1. Go to the nearest tourist Police boot and ask them to assist you with the translation (YES, I have done that before a few times and the answer was YES every time). 2. Talk with the Motorbike driver and see if you can settle the case in a decent way. 3a. The case can be settled reasonnable, do it and ask signed papers of the settlement. 3a. The motorbike driver makes unreasonable demands or is unwilling to settle the case, seek advice from a lawyer and let the lawyer handle the case.

As said many times in this thread, only "Blocking" the sender is of no use as the sender uses a spoof identity, not a phone number. Only "Report" the sender and block the incoming SMS at the provider is a way to eliminate the scammer.

Yes,the only option is "Block".

My phone, Vivo Y22, only gives the option to Block the sender. Which is useless.

That's the way Thai Justice works. The Police can hold the case hidden from the courts for unlimited time while "getting evidences" (see the Red Bull case). If the perpetrator settles the case with the Police (brown enveloppes) the case will be clasiffied vertically and will never reach the court. A Court case can only be reached if the perpetrator files a charge, which is not done if the "crime" is settled with the Police.

Excellent point.

Search on Google for "SMS Bomber" or "SMS Blaster" and you will see that Blocking the Sender makes no difference as the Sender Address is auto-generated.

I suffered a heart attack in 1997, and I can assure you that a phone will not help you if you have a heart attack. The only thing that can help you at that moment is to have someone who can administer Emergency Aid (Heart massage and breathing aid). If that only person would first take pictures to send to Facebook, InstaGram or whatever Social Media, you are f..ked up.

The sender is only identified by "ZFMGC5" Not a phone number. Blocking the name "ZFMGC5" is if no use.

"Sticky Rice Balls" used the quote "are you a five-year old child first. "Liverpool Lou" rebuted that quote by posting that blocking wouldn't help.

Thanks for the info. I used to block them, but I keep receiving these sms messages. Will visit my provider for more info.

Is there any Governmental email where we can report this Scam? I remember that I receoved a link to a Governmental website here, but when I tried to send a Report the link was not existing. I guess that make a report at a police office will not lead anywhere.

I receive on my phone an SMS from this scammer at least 2 times perweek. Normally, I don't give a hoot about scammers on my computer (mail), but I don't like it when they start scamming my phone. What would you do with such scams? PS.: I removed part of the link for security reasons.

Luckely it was his FRIEND who killed him. Not his ENEMY.

Hard? ROTFLMAO

On the FaceSh.t platform, a lot of scammers publish their scams every day. Selling Driver License's; Selling ED medication or tools; Selling underaged girls, Etc. One example which comes to mind right now is the selling of a complete set of electric tools of Makita by Home Pro for 79 Baht. The amount of responses and inquiries/views is overwhelming. And best of all, this scam is SPONSORED by FaceSh.t!!!!

A walk on Beach Rd (Pattaya) or Silom Rd. (Bangkok) would have yield more offenders selling sex-toys than the one in Yala. But the same POLICE did already a short walk in Walking Street and found no prostitution ....

FaceSh.t again. This platform should be banned by every country until they stop "SPONSORING" scammers and install a REAL HELP/COMPLAINT line.

Like another poster said, humans are becoming more tech-savy and more technology advanced but are more dumber on survival skills and communication skills. In some way, humans are becoming robots.

Confirms that the English Embassy does care about his citizens contrary to some posts ...

Not at all Just looks strange that you never hear of it.

Was his "Thai Denmark Milk" account SPONSORED by FaceS..t?
