There are such rats who make the world an insecure place to live in regardless the basic intention of this activity... 1 rat down and hopefully on his way to the cage he deserves to be in...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do however, have biometric versions and special security features. A forged document wouldn't pass inspection at most modern airports and countries. I wonder if they would try to use the fake ones just to see how good they are. Seems to me like it would be beneficial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then these days you have the biometric chip. Are some passports lacking in these sorts of security measures? Or is that immigration simply does not have the time or expertise to check the validity. At some stage maybe the Kingdom will move on from rubber stamps ? But those whole page sticky visas do rapidly take up your passport pages.

wavemanwww Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Mohamed , I believe anyone and I mean anyone with the name starting with "Mohamed" should be on the 10 most Suspicious list for starters. Aside from that Allah Akba," = "god is great" but as an ISIS I need to make extra pocket money to pay for more guns and bombs. Makes sense? Of course not!

He may or may not be eager to tell the police who his clients were and where they can be found if it would mean a shorter sentence or other penalties for him. Since the police were aware of what he was doing they probably have a good idea of who some of his clients are. I am certain all police agencies are not releasing what they learned. And we may or may not hear of more related arrests in the future. I am actually surprised they released as much info as they did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunSeek01 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Good job. Anyone who knows terrorism knows that a big part of it is identities, passports and ID's. Seen plenty of photos of dozens of fake passports around the ME. It's nearly always a part of most organized plans and crime. Also uniforms and vehicles. Not so difficult to do for them and quite difficult to defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised it’s public knowledge tho ! It was a big story in its day, i knew the man that went to an Embassy ( I shall not name the pratts) told them what was going on, they thought he was a nutter because obviously they know more than anyone else what's going on (NOT), then all because of someone getting nabbed at the airport with a fake stamp and a couple of East Asian "Tourists" he then grassed up the mob operating the passport, trafficking, stamps, you name it mob....... Not the end of the story, the guy that grassed them up did it to a citizen of the good old USA,( As the previous Embassy wouldn't touch it), who's virginia farm boys jumped all over the place with the result that the boss grassed the whole mob up for a deal, and as i say, he's still in Thailand roaming wild and free....... Are you getting the picture now that you might not know where you're living ? And this is all true............ 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian guy Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Not much more expensive and probably faster than the real stuff from my embassy. Next time, if the guy's still around I migh need his services.. Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
