Daily News reported yesterday that a registration site for victims of a huge online fraud known as "Nas App" was very busy in the first five days since it was set up.

 

Pol Col Krissana Pattanacharoen said at RTP HQ yesterday that after the tech police started a Google Form more than 4,000 victims had registered in the case.

 

These people have lost around half a billion baht, he said.

 

He urged all victims of the fraud to preserve their evidence and come forward with it.

 

He said that experts in the identification of the money trail were being called into help the police in what was a fast moving fraud.

What is the NAS App??? Something that is going to connect to my sky drive server and collect all the non saved account credentials?

Please help me out a little bit here.

If they ban all tourists from the countries that usually do these online crimes, they'll only have the Indians left for 'open up' day. Course you can add them in too if its a 'you've had an accident recently or your computer has a problem' phone call scam

Made me laugh this one did.  I thought the RTP would have been top experts on ID'ing money trails and fraud or are they really aiming high and getting in some govt ministers?

I guess one slim chance would be that you might end up with no interest, but can people that offer such fantastic opportunities really be that cruel?

It doesn't say that, it says the registration to report the crime has been busy in the 5 days since it was set up.

[steven100]

so why don't they explain what the ' Nap app '   is and does so others can identify it and learn .....   ?
