You bought a used car, at the lower end of the market, without a warranty, what do you expect from the seller? That is how the used car market works. If you didn't bother to pay to get a cheap, sold-as-seen car checked before handing over your cash why do you seem to think that the seller should be giving you money now? As you said, you made a mistake, next time you probably wont.

Why the nasty insult directed at us Middle Easterns? Maybe that hotel wouldn't normally allow you to buy a cup of tea there?

So KhaoYai's your real name?

Nothing wrong with cats.

Since when do I have to answer to you? You don't, obviously, so why did you?

AN can only do that if the information is released to the media and someone else publishes it first.

When you saw him on your property, crossing your lawn to have a dump, you just let him carry on and didn't bother about it until the next day? Really?

"I have not seen a single test being performed in Thailand in full accordance..." How many tests have you actually witnessed being performed?

Seems to me, if you go looking for trouble or an easy way out, you will always find it, and it will most likely bite you, in your backside. What? You seem to be suggesting the those defrauded were "looking for trouble or an easy way out" [sic]? What are you talking about?

Have a read of this thread and ask how do you know its the Police. as i have mentioned the RTP have a history of having dubious dealings and looking after themselves. No need to read it now, that was published the day after you made your allegation and the day after I asked the question! You had no idea of that development at the time of your post.

You might think differently if you were my age, in poor health, and living a long, long way from Mueang Thong Thani. He may have responded differently if you had bothered to mention those very pertinent circumstances in your OP!

Why do you care about the, alleged, crappy mall's future?

Many foreign fraudsters/call centre gang members have, so no reason that he won't, either.

Probably no one but why ask that as there was no suggestion that that was how investors were introduced to him?

Bangkok hasn't been short of rain for the past few days.

Weather, normal weather, nothing more.

What link? I read the article above. Don´t see a link there. The link to Thai Rath in the penultimate paragraph of the OP!

The only point of asking questions is to get accurate answers, not guesses, hearsay or speculation which is what is generally bandied around on anonymous forums.

Good grief. Why don't you just read the link before continuing your speculation and then lamely declaring "final"?

Road rollers are still commonly referred to as steamrollers, regardless of what propels them.

Yeah, but then we'd also lose a bunch of expats around the country. The ones that claim their bike is safer because you can hear them coming from 3 miles away. "Yeah, but then we'd also lose a bunch of expats..." That would be bad? Oh, yes, sorry, of course it would, it would be dreadful.

They didn't.

"Logically reselling the bikes is more appropriate..." Logically? The bikes couldn't be sold by the police, either, as that would be illegal because the bikes belong to the owners.

What? Have you totally lost the plot? I just beg and pray that common sense tells you how bad that sounds. It's not my problem how you feel about my sentiment there but I can assure you that there is something very wrong with people who claim that they blindly respect everyone else, without qualification. I respect people who I know and people who have earned my respect. In the same way I understand that someone who does not know me cannot ever respect me and I would never expect their respect. This assumes that the actual meaning of the word "respect" is understood, of course.

There is a third alternative too. That is for other posters to disregard some posters plump ways of bad behavior posting. I suggest you direct you fountain of information to the OP, and try to help him instead. What I was doing, was elaborating on how I think most card issuers would look at it. I did not tell him to rely on anything nor posted any reliable speculation. What I did post, was my opinion. Yes, and if you hadn't clipped my comment and partially quoted it, it would have been clear that my advice was directed to him. This what I actually posted... "I agree but his obvious residency here, not the US as he has informed them, could be a problem for some card issuers. At card renewal time they could refuse to issue a new card but the only way for him to find out would be to ask his card issuer and that would risk giving the game away. The alternative is to rely on speculation from anonymous people who know nothing about him or his situation with his card provider".
