Popular Post Jingthing Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 No free hugs in Pattaya! I'm sorry, I don't have sympathy for people that wear gold chains on the streets ... ANYWHERE. Were they born yesterday? 28 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jerno Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 What were they doing wandering about 230am. Not like nightlife was going strong then. And stupid enough to show off wearing gold? Idiots. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Onerak Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 2:30 in morning most places are closed and they were roaming with expensive gold chain? There must be some type scam going on in India and they need a police report for that. Definitely not an insurance claim because insurance companies are not stupid to pay off people roaming 2AM in the morning with the gold chain. My guess is they can write it off of their tax returns as business loss with a police report. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Monday Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Same type who rent jets-skis, go gem shopping, fill out street surveys via clipboard toting girls, or get on "20 baht" tuk-tuks. All scams well publicized for decades. Or maybe they are insurance scammers who fake losses? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post morrobay Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 Sure it was bad judgement to be flashing gold . But this is strongarm robbery by criminal lowlife locals against two tourists. So I would rather blame the city and so called police for their inaction in patroling and preventive action rather than the victims. Unlike the US where someone's civil rights are more important than your safety, here there is nothing stopping the authorities from rounding them up. And taking them away. Fascism is not all bad. 3 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at this rate, and due to the relatively small numbers of them, there won't be any gold necklaces left soon. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMHERE Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Is this a 'report' or a 'fact' ? I'm betting there isn't any CCTV that shows any two LBs on a motorbike at 2:30 AM near where they 'report' the incident to have happened. There is many CCTV on 2nd road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Inala Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 Why do (some) grown and otherwise masculine men follow the feminine trait of wearing necklaces anyway? Do they somehow think it makes them look more sexy or attractive? I see quite a few guys getting around with the heavy gold necklaces, gold rings on the finger, covered in tatts and wearing a blue wife beater. Talk about stereotyping yourself as a redneck/bogan! And making yourself an easy target. 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVENKEEL Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Maybe, just maybe it wasn't just an encounter on the street but encounter in a room. If the guy has a wife there he has to explain what happened to chain. The Indian dudes like their ladyboys. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkk6060 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) Seems like just the past 2 weeks groups of Indian males walking everywhere. Expect more of these type of reports they seem to be reported victims from these type of thefts over the years, then any one else. PS: Maybe they approached the ladyboys first and said: You are a very lucky man.. Edited May 7, 2022 by bkk6060 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalangJaiDee Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 It seems that when you’re one of “those” people you have to make concerted efforts to compensate for uh for um the uh the “things” that make you less desirable so that explains why someone would wear a gold chain as a desperate peacocking attempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
