Officers from the Immigration Bureau led by chief Lt-Gen Sompong Chingduang raided two places in Nonthaburi yesterday to crack a loan sharking operation, reported Daily News.

 

Chinese national Lian Pin Pin was arrested at a house in the Janthima housing estate in Bang Bua Thong on a warrant for running an illegal loan business. Bankbooks were taken into evidence.

 

In Rattanathibet Road Soi 30 a Thai woman called Natchuta was arrested on a similar warrant and 100 computers and phones were taken into evidence. 

 

There were 66 employees there running the business that was backed by a Chinese investor, say police.

If you borrow money - and there were 70,000 on the books - you'd only get between 30% - 42% of the principal amount.

 

If it was not return after 7 days the first day of interest was 12% and each subsequent day 5%. 

 

Apps used in the scam were called Maew Kwak, Thung Ngern, TikTak, Ubaht, Taomongkhol and Cashdaddy.

Does any of that make any sense? ????

The ‘victims’ aren’t off the hook. The police will sell the loan shark’s books to another loan shark who will enforce payments and collect the debts.

Clear pattern.   Chinese crime in Thailand is way more elaborate than dumb falang.

 

Falang arrested for drinking beer, crashing car, falling into lake, attacks ladyboy, sleeps in Tesco

 

Chinese arrested after running a 1.97 zillion dollar enterprise.
