Golly, I wonder if Kasikorn ever recovered from that dramatic action of moving a whole B1m+ out, the branch must have been devastated.

Use your brain I was, that's why I asked the question. How, exactly, was it a "fraud"?

They are classed as firearms and carrying them around in public as you describe definitely is illegal.

Why would an adult ask that in that manner?

No, it is not normal in Thailand. Usually the bank to which the ATM is attached will start an investigation if the ATM did not dispense the cash. As others have suggested, report the transaction to your own bank also. "Is this normal in Thailand?" You say that the ATM gave you your B8,000, you also say that it didn't. Which one is it and which bank's ATM did you use? "The Savings Bank" is not a Thai bank. Is it possible that you didn't make your problem clear to the bank staff, also? Is that normal for you?

Promise to sell something, but did not. You need to change the defamatory title of your thread, Western Union did not scam you.

"Fraud"? What benefit did he get from his valuation?

So?

An bizarrely extreme hypothetical situation, not an excuse. "So you would have the option of either overstaying or putting your Child in a orphanage and then leaving Thailand". Taking your child to its own country with you would be an alternative to dumping it in an orphanage while you buggered off home.

He declared his parcel's value at around B12,800 ($360). No corruption or thievery in this case.

I can think of a valid exc Go on, then.

Less than zero chance of that.

How exactly do his actions make it harder for those who follow the rules?

Where did you get that "information" from?

Nonsense. If he leaves from the airport.

No.

Used shirts are not exempt from import duty when you're importing shirts. Import duty is calculated solely on their value, as judged by Customs, same as in every country.

No. Didn't think so...my question was rhetorical, really.

Why would you not read the article that covered that aspect?

A new low for AN posters who don't read the articles. This Thai man declared the value of the packet as US$360 when he sent it, that's why duty was charged in Thailand. Importing shirts into Thailand attracts import duty on their value, regardless of whether they have been worn.

Which "Thai driver" is "no longer on the road" and where was it reported that the driver was Thai?

The driver was unidentified so why do you refer to him as a "Somchai"?

Turns around and slowly moves the bike away from the immediate scene, is still there, probably parked, when the CCTV cuts off.

Does Firefox block the YT ads?

I use Brave and YouTube blocks my viewing. I'll play around and see if there's a setting I can change. I use Brave on the laptop and the phone, no blocking of videos from YT.
