Popular Post BEVUP Posted April 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Well what can you say when one doesn't notify their bank. Especially knowing it had 6 mill in it Oh just remembered the saying - A fool & his money soon parted Edited April 19, 2018 by BEVUP 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Must have been the guy's slush fund acct. Normally if it was your day to day acct, either you or your wife would have noticed something is amiss when the first million disappears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NamKangMan Posted April 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) How did he get the PIN? Why didn't the bank contact the victim about an unusual withdrawal pattern? Strange the victim never noticed the ATM card, or the money missing from his account, for such a long time. I'm wondering what line of "work" the victim and offender are in.

Popular Post BigBadGeordie Posted April 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2018 . "The report also made no mention of where the B6.52mn went, though police did note that officers took Witoon into custody for further questioning." Not sure what the rate is in this type of case, 50/50, 60/40, 70/30. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Clearly there is much to unfold about this story. Victim remains unnamed or nationality ? If I was in conspiracy mode I would say the 'victim' was a foreigner working away from Thailand. Entrusted his ATM card to 'employee' or maybe girlfriend/wife. Guy returns to Thailand earlier than plan and they crooks had no time to run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckThai Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 The thief and the victim, are both stereotypical Thais managing their finances (the victim let shit hit the fan until it was comically out of control, the thief, well, he did what Thais do when financial shit hits the fan, and is out of control) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
