webfact Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Picture: Siam Rath Siam Rath reported on a disturbing case of a 13 year old girl in Udon Thani in Thailand's north east who fell victim to a fraudster online. Ann, an assumed name, said she was contacted on Facebook by someone from the page of Sunisa Jompanya. They said she could earn 25,000 baht by sending some naked pictures. She pointed out that she was only 13 not 18 to which the fraudster said: "No worries, we handle girls as young as ten". She sent one picture then got cold feet. She was told by the fraudster that she had to send more or she would be exposed on social media among her friends. She sent eight more pictures and a video call clip.

Worried about being exposed she borrowed the money from a friend without telling her parents. She received no money. Now she is being assisted by the admin of a group run by Weeraphol Raksamerwong who will take her to the police today. The girl was in tears and said she was suicidal after what happened. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-04-26 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

DezLez Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 There is one born every minute! Why did she not just download some pictures from the web and post them pretending they were of her. And why not tell the fraudsters to deduct the 800 baht "tax" before forwarding the (non existing) money to her? 1 4 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better not to engage at all, social media use should be monitored better by her parents. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dmaxdan Posted April 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2022 Very sad. Hopefully she will learn from this and in the future ignore random people who contact her on social media. The internet is crammed fill of scammers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to be some sort of discussion of this in schools. Don't send sexy photos, don't let your partner record you having sex, people lie and people change. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My misses gets 10bht for 'liking' facebook pages and reposting them.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted April 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2022 Alot of people just do not understand how corrosive, damaging, degrading and nasty social media can be. There are an infinite number of scammers, predators and fraudsters out there. Most of us have the good sense to avoid them, and not get taken in by their unwillingness to do actual work for a living. How is a youngster supposed to have the wisdom to know? Granted being asked to send naked pics to a stranger is a bit much. But, I am sure it happens all the time. There is little chance of these people getting apprehended. Very little. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is true that she is getting money from what you claim then how is that a "Facebook Scam"? And what have the so called Shopee or Lazada kick backs got to do with the poor girl for that matter?

Maybe just a translation of mai bpen rai. Then I would put it in quotes as "Don't worry."

What's interesting is that you don't seem to have much sympathy for a 13 year old (most likely poorly educated) girl who has been conned by what sounds like a paedo ring. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
