2long Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 How will they manage this? Maybe by draining every tourist of their cash before the pickpockets who don't wear uniform get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith101 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Just how many Indians are stupid enough to walk around with a chain worth so much or are they typical Indian scammers coming to Thailand to make money . Pickpockets are generally ladyboys but just normal thieves like the ones on motorbikes snatching bags . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kcpattaya Posted June 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2022 About time they clear these LB's off beach-road. They've been terrorizing the beach road at night since many many years. Police is doing NOTHING. CCTV are not working. And IF they "catch" one: It will be back on the streets in less than 30 minutes. So, again a "bla bla" announcement. Propaganda. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reporters in Thailand love repetition and perpetuating myths.... in this case Ladyboys robbing Indian Tourists..... Others are probably robbed too but it just doesn’t make the news for some reason. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardflory Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Having worked on Pattaya beach as a FTPA, I can attest to MANY people ( men and women ) from India wear monster gold jewelry ( fake gold??? ) on Beach Road day and night. It's a status symbol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mancub Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Indian guys are openly not so welcome in the go-go bars etc so they tend to be in the majority "trawling" Beach rd and similar spots looking for some action. As that's where the less "desirable" ( for lack of a better word) lady-geezers operate, then it's obvious that these victims are going to be mostly of their nationality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorecard Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Yes, they will assign a cop to be with each/all Indian tourists at all times. Those with large gold chains will have 2 cops, one will carry a small safe but with a photo of the gold chain taped to the safe so all can see and tourist can flaunt his wealth.

How about telling the Indian tourists that perhaps it is not a good idea to be "socializing" with transgenders. If you play with matches sometimes you get your fingers burned.
