    3,782 people have Schultz as surname in Denmark. The Germans must have left a few offspring when they invaded.

Who is stupid enough to book on a unknown website deserves to be cheated.

Denmark has a boarder with Germany, lots of intermingling, mixed marriages etc. in many towns on or near the boarder you can speak German or Danish. 

I lived in Copenhagen for a year. Didn't learn any Danish bcuz everyone spoke fluent English. Nicest people too but ridiculously expensive to live. (Not as expensive as Norway or Sweden though).

Schleswig-Holstein, bordering northern Germany? They don't get it. Thai cops, at the top DSI  (Krong Brab Baap) are smart, and tough. Leave FBI in the dust. The girls informants? A neat sting.

Verisimilitude. Learn that word and be careful of fakes. 

I hope this piece of SCUM and his accomplices rot in jail.

If paid with card card, then not stupid at all, because victims will get ALL their money back.

Schultz is one of the top 100 common surnames in Denmark and I have a lot of Danish friends here with the surname Schultz. The surname derives from a status name for a parish official performing certain judicial functions in the parish (from the German Schultze). The border between Denmark and Germany has changed several times in history and the present border with Germany was fixed in 1920.

It's simply misreporting of the website which is probably VacasianHotels.com which is registered and not VacasianHotel.com which is not registered, fortunately,as I guess defamation would have been an option for the owner.

The Thais will turn against him for either immunity or reduced sentence, depending on which canary sings first

if you are a good Buddhist you do not lie.

if the judge doesn't hear the phrase...'gave useful information'

the sentence is doubled.

 

what would you do?

Schultz and his five Thai fellow conmen; "Police are hunting for the five alleged accomplices."

they got who they really wanted and the photo op that seems so important to them; bet their search for the others is just idle talk

No one deserves to be cheated....  they didn't 'have it coming' and may be guilty of naivety, but they didn't 'deserve it' much in the same way you wouldn't deserve to die if you ride in a car without a seat belt or on the back of a motorcycle taxi without a helmet... (can you honestly say you've never done any of those?)....

 

 

 

 

If I was riding without helmet or seatbelt I would deserve to die. I do not have any problem with the truth, unlike most people.

Probably not a good idea to post details on a forum even if the whois is protected.

 

Even worse when it's not even the reported domain name in question,which is also wrong

Its in the public domain, so who cares.

If they spent as much time on catching criminals as they spend on their ridiculous "Power Point " presentations then I might agree that they did a good job. However, if you look at the expense and work that has gone into their little charade of professionalism with their stupid presentation, then to me these idiots are just wasting money. We need to see more people that have been ripped off being flown over to Thailand to have them point at the defendant, only then will justice have been served!

That "Stupid Presentation," as you call, will be presented to the Court to highlight the positions of those involved, how it was impemented and the money trail. So who's stupid?:wai:

Could be vacasianhotels.com  

 

The domain was locked September 29. Registered in Panama.

Not a common Danish name but Danish too. Sadly he got his face in newspapers and TV now. If not he could have paid his way out.

Seems the Nigerians, Indians and Thai's have caught a temporary respite.

20 million baht in 2 years, that`s almost 1 million baht a month. WOW, one hell of a scam.

 

As I have said; foreign criminals would not be able to operate in Thailand without the collaboration of Thais. In my opinion his Thai accomplices are the worse criminals of the bunch. 20 million baht, he won`t get off this one with a 500 baht fine and a slap on the wrist. The Dane has had his bacon.

 

 

if he is smarr he become a monk for a week than all is fibe and dont forget the obligatory wai...

Denmark has a large community of German speakers in the region near the German border.

Sounds more like a "kraut" but who knows you can't judge a book by it's name, or how was it... ?
