As for for the heist, one flirts, the other sneaks round the back and undoes the clasp. It's one of the oldest tricks in the book. And why Indians @Letseng? Because they like to flaunt gold. It's a powerful status symbol in the Indian culture 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is simpler than that,,,, wear it until someone takes it off you, and never replace it, and a person can stop being a pretentious Pratt wearing valuables while strolling among poor people.

blazes Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 At the end of the day, who (if he's a man and not a birthing person) would spend 85,000 baht on a sodding necklace? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Excel Posted May 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2022 So we are up to 85 k, any one going for 90 k ? These cheating Indians should be played at there own game. They claim they had a 85 k necklace stolen so Thai authorities should retrospectively charge them import duty as the allowance is 20 k. That will shut those Indian scammers up. Quality tourists indeed, low quality more like. 5 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever had a discussion with a heavily accented Indian in English? Factor in that they will both be using a second language. The policeman probably asked him to pull down his mask in order to hear what he was saying. I sometimes have difficulty understanding what someone is saying when they're wearing a mask. (especially when they are a pretty bank teller) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RichardColeman Posted May 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2022 Do these idiots expect us to believe they wear a $3,000 necklace out and a $2 t-shirt ? Surely that is a major clue in this Indian con 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall about a year or two ago, we had quite a lot of these necklace snatches, and up pops a case of some Indians being charged for submitting false theft reports and insurance claims. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
