mvdf Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Never read anything on scientific papers conclusively and authoritatively linking scam-related stress to brain hemorrhage, especially one alleging iPhones to be the fatal and causative root of an aneurysm. No end to surprises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrNatural Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 The story was on TV. Extremely poor family in remote area so it was a real sacrifice for them to send 5000 THB but the boy needed the phone to study. As the boy did not receive his phone he felt very bad for him and his parents. That story makes me sick myself so I can't imagine how he could feel. Actually, the parents went to TV reporters as police wouldn't bother investigate and apparently it worked. Just a(nother) very sad story in the end. P.S. : thanks to the medical experts here, I still can have a good laugh thanks to you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one can be charged and held criminally culpable for making someone feel stressed, whether it causes death or not, is a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
