For investments between 399 baht and 91,999 baht members could click on hearts for rewards. "A" thought she could get 560 baht a day or 16,800 baht a month. She had applied for a 12,999 baht membership on October 18th but two days when her rewards had not come through she contacted the site that said they were busy. By the 22nd of October the site had been shut down. The scam is thought to have cost people 40 million baht.
