Disappearing wife of 13 grooms linked to a long history of cons

By THE NATION

 

 

BANGKOK: -- POLICE ARE trying to determine if the parents of Jariyaporn Buayai conspired in her alleged fraud by duping at least 13 men into marriage.

 

Jariyaporn, 32, from Loei’s Wang Saphung district, is accused of tricking the men into marrying her and then fleeing with their dowries and wedding gifts. 

 

She allegedly married four men in one month in separate ceremonies. 

 

Thirteen victims filed complaints with the Crime Suppression Bureau in Bangkok on Tuesday, claiming they were defrauded of anywhere from Bt100,000 to Bt500,000. 

 

The victims, from various provinces, met her online and were convinced of her sincerity when she presented an elderly couple as her parents when the subject of a wedding and dowry came up. 

 

Jariyaporn, who claimed her family had a fruit-selling business in many provinces, allegedly spent about two months in a relationship with each victim before bringing up the subject of marriage and managing to get them to wire the dowry to her.

 

Lawyer Songkran Atchariyasap accompanied the plaintiffs as they made their complaints to CSB deputy commander Pol Colonel Suwat Saengnoom. 

 

 

The complaints name Jariyaporn, her parents Boonliang and Samrong Buayai, and “Soiphetch Paleewan”, the name Jariyaporn used on Facebook and also on a bank account used in the alleged fraud.

 

Jariyaporn is charged under Section 342 of the Criminal Code – deceiving another person about your true identity for criminal purposes – which is punishable by up to five years in jail, a Bt10,000 fine or both.

 

The police investigation found that Jariyaporn used to work for Loei local administrative organisation but she was fired in 2012 after the office discovered she was wanted over a separate fraud incident in which she allegedly duped people of between Bt100,000 and Bt130,000 with the false promise that she could get them jobs at a municipality office. 

 

 

Since the news broke late last week about her alleged online scam, she has disappeared and her house in Wang Saphung has been locked.

 

A 38-year-old victim who was duped of Bt500,000 said that he knew Jariyaporn for a month before she claimed to be pregnant and he decided to wed her in December 2015 to take care of her and the child. However, she then fled with the money and he has been left to repay the debt at Bt20,000 a month.

 

Another victim said he knew Jariyaporn from Facebook since September 2016. They got romantically involved and he later sold his car to invest Bt180,000 in a business with her. He also gave her Bt160,000 in December and wired another Bt180,000 as part of a dowry. He said she demanded Bt200,000 cash and gold ornaments worth Bt60,000. He also quit his job to do business with her but she postponed the wedding in January 2017 and disappeared.

 

Another man said he got to know Jariyaporn last December via Facebook and she duped him of Bt300,000 and gold ornaments which he gave her for the wedding in May. 

 

A day after the ceremony, she left for her hometown and never came back, so he realised he had been duped.

A house in Pathum Thani that the woman claimed to be hers, and suggested as a wedding venue to many victims, was actually a rented property. When she fled she also took the furniture, including a television and an air conditioner. 

 

Jariyaporn also allegedly cheated fruit vendors in Chumphon, Chanthaburi and Rayong by ordering fruit in bulk and failing to pay.

Ok... if you meet a person and few weeks later you want to marry him/her

 when fools rush in, don't be surprise that that person is not what they claim to be,

what happen to long and careful 'get to know each other first'?......

Tome, she is not attractive, but has all these men after her.

Indeed, she may not be physically attractive to you, but there is more to a person than a photo image. Maybe she had a nice personality or was very sexy to them. After all, many Thai women marry less than handsome farangs.

[CelticBhoy]

Hats off to the chunky monkey. She did more than well with that rack  . . .  

[Chris Lawrence]

She must like parties and party dresses?

[ChrisY1]

Stupid dumb a## dowry system...!

[Thechook]

What was her appeal that had men dropping at her feet, he definately isn't looks.

being concurrently married isnt a crime in thailand ? no mention of civil remedies for the overly trusting victims

[JimmyJ]

For about $25 USD, her suitors could've gotten a complete rundown on her from multiple internet sites, and perhaps would have seen the fraud charge that got her fired from her job.

(I'm assuming these personal reports are available on Thai citizens also - perhaps I'm wrong and it's not being done there).

 

About $10 would've bought a pregnancy test kit simply requiring her to urinate on it.

 

These guys really fell for her bigly to never consider doing a check.

Actually, "sin sod" is a form of "bride price". Dowry on the other hand is the traditional system in most western countries where the money flows the other was from the women's family to the man.

Once had some chrome bumper that needed polishing. She did the job with honors. Sucked it clean and shiny. Bravo.

The other side of the coin is that the "husbands" thought they were marrying into a wealthy family.

[kotsak]

They definitely (and literally) were sucked into it.

[4evermaat]

At least they can cut their losses. In more "developed" countries, guys can be forced to pay lifetime alimony even if there are no kids.

 

Alimony and child support (if kids) formulas are income-based....not fixed amount based on fixed cost of living. Even if paternity fraud is proven, family courts can be quite one-sided with their judgements in favor of the mom.

 

 

[laislica]

How about adding charges for bringing Thailand into disrepute while they are at it?

 

[473geo]

Well... well.... well...... rather punches a hole right through the reasoning of some Tvisa 'experts' who insist sinsod is only paid by desperate aged farangs

Could you list a few such Internet sites with information about Thai people? Thank you.

This brings back some memories....how else could that much money be fleeced in such a short time?

"People Search Thailand - Need a background check? Please visit our site and try our criminal record checks and police information checks instantly online."

 

If I were to do a search for this for a USA citizen I would see dozens of sites.

This is the only one I've noticed for Thailand.

 

Don't know if it's because I'm searching from the USA in English, or if there is more privacy protection in Thailand (that's great if true) or if for some reason the People Search industry hasn't spread there yet (which would be surprising).
