Crime Suppression Division police arrested two people in Ramkhamhaeng Soi 68 in Bangkapi, Bangkok for an alleged 6.7 million baht theft using a credit card.

 

Chatcha or Siriwan, 47, and Jit, 51, who appeared to be a motorcycle taxi rider, denied fraud after their arrest Tuesday, reported INN.

 

The owner of a credit card, the victim in the case, said that she gave her card to Chatcha to buy cosmetics at a cheap rate for which she would receive benefits in return.

 

Instead it is claimed that the recipient of the card in league with her male accomplice bought alcohol, cigarettes and other items worth 6.7 million baht.

By the look of it, the win driver didn't spend any of it on clothes. ????

That is a lot of money allegedly nicked and the goods would take up a serious amount of space, so wonder where the loot is?

Have to say giving someone your credit card with millions available on it, is a very obviously stupid thing to do.

It is against credit card terms to give your card to anyone.

Would she be able to claim the money back from the bank?

I dont think that she would , considering she gave the card to someone to use

Something not right with this story, no credit card company will allow you to spend that much unless you're a very wealthy person with a very , very high spending limit and even then, the Card issuer will get suspicious when there's such big spending on one card and will ask for a clearance from the owner...

Jit 51 ... looks like a kid , Someone with that much credit available ,

Always the same.

 

But xxx at a cheap price and be entered into some make believe system that pays out hard cash.

Who has a credit card with like a 6.7M limit and then hands this to a random person. Filthy rich or extremely naive and low IQ.

Something not quite right about this story involving a credit card  and over 6 million baht being spent ????
