Thai immigration in a press conference at Suan Phlu HQ in Bangkok gave details of the arrest of a 46 year old French national called Stephane.

 

He was arrested on a warrant issued in Pattaya in September for burglary at night.

 

This involved the stealing of a woman's motorcycle at the resort that was reported near the end of June, said Naew Na.

 

Stephane was nabbed in Khao San Road and taken back to Nong Prue police station.

 

Police there had earlier asked for immigration's help in tracking down the suspect.

 

It was reported that since his arrival in Thailand in October 2019 the French man had been up to no good multiple times and left a string of Thai girlfriends in his wake.

 

He would borrow from them then leave them standing. 

 

He is also mixed up in putting Thai women's pictures on Facebook for the purposes of prostitution. 

 

In addition he used their bank accounts for his own nefarious activities, it is alleged. 

 

Many women reported him at FOUR police stations - Nong Prue in Pattaya, Lam Plai Mat and Ban Kruad in Buriram and Muang Bua in Surin, both in the north east of Thailand. 

 

Now in custody the police are expanding their inquiry into his affairs.

 

A giant vinyl board at HQ announced the arrest of a "man from the land of perfume" for stealing a motorcycle.

Great, happy they caught him. Now the shoe is on the other foot as we often read about woman conning men now the other way around. 

 

There are a lot of scams going on also among Thais. Police must have a handful for these kind of things.

Arrest record checks of home country offenses are long overdue before allowing foreigners in.

Stephane, 46. No way he come from The Land of Perfume  and suddenly becomes a noted serial scammer. Probably has an ugly arrest record and history of anti-social behavior and crimes.

Any news article that manages to use the words nabbed, nefarious, and the ultimate hidden and oh-so subtle little gem of a  double entendre, "Now in custody the police are expanding their inquiry into his affairs" deserves an award of some sort.

In a way that is true. But in another way it's not true.

It seems lots of guy do their best to give money to girls. Like: Please, stop working in that job and I will give you x every month. And I like to build that house for you to make you happy. And obviously I want that your family is happy...

 

Many guys somehow forget that when they first met their tilac that she told him he is a handsome guy. And she laughed about every stupid joke he made. And obviously she got paid for that. Did they really think she thought he is handsome?  Or was he aware that he paid her for lying to make him feel good? And then when she continued to lie to make him feel good at some stage he thought she betrayed him? Really? Was she not just doing a job?

 

I wonder if those betrayed women from the french guy acted similarly. Or if he actively conned them?

Oh yes i 100% agree with you, the guys did this themselves (often anyway). Its different then outright theft what the French guy did. Not that many men would admit that they have a part to play in the money they lost. You see on this forum topics of guys that find out that the car has an other loan on it (fraud) and stuff that is worse. But if willingly given then stupid them.

 

If you build a relationship based on money then make sure you dont pay to much. I have had a relation (first one ever) where i paid (thankfully not to much never a sin sod or anything) but the woman cheated on me a lot. Thai woman moved to Netherlands with me. I feel it was my mistake for being stupid, i fell for it. 

 

That was the first and last time i ever based a relation on money. Though paying for a bar girl for a night is a good thing, both get what they want and know what they get into.

 

This however is true fraud and the same goes for woman who actively scam guys. I wonder if its considered an active scam if you give your GF money for a house and later the relation breaks and you lose the money. My feeling says its a scam but on the other hand many relations just break down so it might not have been planned.

I am always amazed when some guys here write that their wife played a role for 10 years to then got all the money when they split up 10 years later? Really? Which Thai person thinks even one year ahead? What many guys somehow forget it that people change and people change their minds. If I am happy with a woman for a year that doesn't mean I will be happy with her for 10 years and more. And that is obviously also true the other way around. No, she didn't plan it all years in advance...

They call it the long con, on this forum. But like you said people change and not many plan that long ahead. People do change and many relationships end. That is a fact of life.
