jenny2017 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Tell "your friend" that you'll go to the Immigration and get him blacklisted. Tell him that you know Sgt. Major Somchai personally. That will only work if he doesn't read your thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VBF Posted August 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2018 Old adage "never a borrower or a lender be" Of more help is that: 1 it'll cost you more than 3,000 to get it back "legally"....TIT 2 you've now found out that your "friend" is a <deleted>! IMO 3,000 Baht is quite cheap to get rid of him - could have cost you much more! Just being pragmatic. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP should look at some "good examples" where foreigners have built houses, bought cars, motorbikes, buffaloes, paid for the sick mom's heart operation(s) and her and her brother's fake boobs. Then it might be way easier to understand that the money is definitely gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1FinickyOne Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 the cost of school -- people seek loans because they don't have money which is also why they don't usually repay them either... If you can afford it - it makes a nice gift - if you can't - don't make the loan.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Different Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Yes ask your Thai friend to speak to police but I hope you have his phone number, it happened to me I gave a Russian young man 30.000 baht when there was no deal I called him and told him that I will go to Soi 9 after he gave the money the next day.

oxforddon Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Unless you have something in writing to prove that you lent him the money it becomes your word against his and police cannot act just upon that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Tell him you have this great opportunity to invest 5,000 and a month later get 10,000 back. But you need "his" 3,000 to do that. You can tell him if he gives you the money now then his debt will be cleared and he will get his part of this great investment in a month. If you are lucky he will go for this once in a lifetime opportunity. Maybe he even offers you 10,000 to invest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
