- High-Ranking Thai Abbot Leaves Monkhood Amid Blackmail Allegations
Any comment about the blackmailer who even pretended to be pregnant to get money from him? There seems to be not much criticism of her in this thread - and it turns out not to be her first rodeo.- Win Big in Thailand: Foreigners Welcome to Try Their Luck in the Lottery
The underground lottery is very popular because you can choose your own 2 or 3 numbers and also choose your own stake (from 10 baht upwards). Choosing 2 numbers gives odds of 100/1 and a win normally pays 60x the stake Choosing 3 numbers gives odds of 1000/1 and a win normally pays 450x the stake This is a lot more than the payout for 2 or 3 numbers on the official lottery but, of course, does not include the chance of a 6M baht jackpot. A couple of years ago I won 90,000 baht for a 200 baht stake on 3 numbers (actually my total stake was 1,200 as I bet 200 on all 6 combinations of my 3 numbers).- Win Big in Thailand: Foreigners Welcome to Try Their Luck in the Lottery

Here's an example of a man winning 96 million with 16 tickets (added prizes increased it to 144 million) https://thethaiger.com/news/national/man-wins-144-million-baht-in-thailands-lottery- Win Big in Thailand: Foreigners Welcome to Try Their Luck in the Lottery
No, the winnings are not shared, each ticket would win 6 million baht.- Transfering Visa from old to new passport
Recently, I used an agent (Key Visa, Pattaya) to handle my UK passport renewal, as I did not fancy two trips to Bangkok to do it myself. I just went into their office with my passport and fee (nothing else) and received notification of my new passport about 4 weeks later (IIRC - 12,500, including the passport cost). For an extra fee of 2,500 baht the agent had my stamps transferred. I didn't need to provide any additional paperwork - I just transferred the fee from my WISE account to the agent. A few days later I collected my new passport from the agent - all done - no hassle for me.- Armed Robbers Steal 3.4 Million Baht in Crypto Scam in Bangkok Mall
