balo Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 We had an Ukrainian gang in Pattaya and Phuket who claimed they were deaf and tried to sell key chains a few years ago , they were deported I think. Maybe they are back . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Are they preparing for the fact it won't be as easy to get into the UK and scrounge soon, or simply the weather is far better here and it has become seasonal. Summer in Europe, winter in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMNH Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 18 hours ago, Suradit69 said: She might have considered forgoing a trip to Thailand and using the money saved to buy a hearing aid in her home country. I seem to recall some Russians in Pattaya trolling Beach Rd flogging key chains and handing out cards claiming each was deaf ... and then enjoying a miraculous restoration of their hearing when corralled by the police. In all countries, there are scam artists. Sadly, I am sure there are legitimate people down on their luck- especially Thais. These "grifters" disgust me. Go back to own country and try to grift there. Meanwhile, I will use my intelligence to see native Thais who are hurting- and not these scum bag tourists who are the bottom of the barrel. I see native Thais who are hurting- their children as well. When I see "foreigners" attempting to grift others, then I would send them home...period. How dare you!

I saw the same scam growing up in North America years ago. He said hearing aids won't help a deaf person. My father is effectively deaf until he puts his hearing aids in, and then he can hear. What is it about your comprehension that you didn't understand my response? Perhaps you should take your cigar out of your mouth when you speak?

the guest Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 If your a foreigner with no money, then you have no right to be in the country. Thailand has enough of it's own problems, without foreigners adding to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever listened to rave music more than 5 minutes? If you're not deaf already from the volume, you'd wish you were ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
