Pattaya: Two foreign men latest victims of thieving Beach Road prostitutes - 140K pinched

[Eloquent pilgrim]

120,000 Baht necklace ?? …. it looks like the toilet flushing chain from the outside toilet of the old terraced house I grew up in  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[swm59nj]

When these types of quality tourists come to play. Those are the breaks

" who would go for a stroll"

ME im guilty its usually quite nice to walk on a flat smooth pavement which in itself is a rarity in Thailand. 

I don't know whether to be happy or insulted that I've never had an attempted touch up from our lola's .

Mind you I do not go out looking like Mr T ( b a baracus) the A team .I'm more like Albert Steptoe

[3NUMBAS]

always wear plated gold in patters

[Tarteso]

Problem solved

 

Xi has just signed a contract to sell fake gold chains for all citizens of India and Russia.

Pattaya became same as casino, take out with you only what you can afford to lose ????

[IAMHERE]

I wonder if the Indian had a Thai Sim. Don't they track those down pretty well? BOLT knows where I am.

Nobody goes for a stroll on a "beach" in Pattaya......31 and 29 years old!!!   Russian and Indian.

 

You have gone into the Devil's Den and then complain about bad things????

 

I want to wear 2,000,000 in gold and go to Pattaya to see if anyone will try to rob me.   I've watched enough Ninja YouTube videos to be ready.  

not everyone's a sex maniac bro. strolling along Pattaya beach is one of the reasons I'm thinking about moving there once my lease is up in Bangkok. I love Bangkok but really miss the Beach Road vibe, warts and all.

In a report on the Bangkok Post website they stated the 120,000 Baht necklace was 18 K gold.  Thai gold is 22 K, so the thieves will be quickly caught when they try to sell it as it is not Thai gold

Ladyboy street robberies are so common now in Pattaya that any ladyboys walking along the Beach Road and Walking Street can be assumed to be thieves. Announce that thieving ladyboys will be executed if caught. Illegal, but it might scare them away.

What is the police doing, since these robberies takes place on a daily basis for years and years.

You want arrests before crimes take place

[sammieuk1]

The Russian only knew they were ladyboys when a Ukrainian sniper popped out of their underpants ????

[RichardColeman]

Seems Pattaya is full of idiot tourists wearing a half years salary of gold chain and baggy pants that may have ball room but less feel for a phone being lifted !

Rule #1, do not take anything to Pattaya you are not willing to give up.  Necklaces, money, your virginity!  Everything in your life will eventually be Paid Forward in your pursuit of Short time pleasures.

These robbery stories getting old, let us hear about foreigners who actually marry these ladies and end up losing houses, condos, cars, and their sanity...i.e. Long time!  5555

Change that to read Thailand...

[johnhender]

Prostitutes robbing tourists in Pattaya?

Is this a new thing because I was under the impression that we were told by the police that there is no prostitution in family friendly Pattaya.

Sick bird, it's ill-eagle.

You think well researched tourists go to Pattaya?

[brucegoniners]

WC Fields said there's one born every minute.

 

Why in the world would you carry that kind of money around?

 

Especially late at night on Pattaya Beach.
