Children??? This is a very serious offence, I believe if you forge or bring forged Baht into circulation you can get life imprisonment. I can imagine that the FBI will also want to know the details,this isn't going to be a slap on the wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the 4 English guys on Koh Phangan changing fake British Pounds paid their way out and were on a flight within a couple of days. So, in Thailand if you can do a deal to pay off the cops in the early stages, serious offences can be forgotten along with the charges and consequent prison sentences. It's pay for play here. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/four-brits-charged-after-bundling-8871506 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They printed them themselves. At least one of the four continued on his backpacking tour in Australia (one year working holiday visa). I know of no charges in the UK.

pedro01 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The $50k is not for an attorney. Well, not all of it. It is most likely tea money, of which the 'attorney' will get a slice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If as they say they found the money on the street and decided to keep it you can say as a minimum guilty of dishonesty, theft at worst. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyL Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The story seems to be getting weirder. The money raised will obviously help pay the cops off and they'll be off to Bali by next week to continue their 'spiritual' journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A decent lawyer should cost no more than 2-300,000 for the pair of them. What is the rest for? A fat luxurious holiday while they wait for the court case?

soalbundy Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 No details of how they found the money, was it exactly 1,000 dollars, was it tied up in a bundle, was it in a wallet, was it strewn across the pavement, in an envelope perhaps ?

poanoi Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 nearly every vendor in cambodia takes a close look at my dollars and oftentimes the money aint good enough so i have to keep picking up money from the belt until they pass the eyeball test. if they got the money handed to them in cambodia, it is well likely they got tricked them selves. i'm sure i would not be able to differ fakes from true dollars myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
