Daily News Thai Caption: Arrested at a condo

 

Police from the Consumer Protection Division served an arrest warrant for fraud and misrepresentation on the internet on a 39 year old woman named only as "A".

 

This followed many complaints from people who had booked rooms at a Pattaya hotel but got nothing.

 

Losses are in the millions of baht.

 

"A" denied everything after her arrest at a luxury condo in the Charoen Sanitwong area of the Thai capital.

 

Daily News reported that she had worked in the sales department of a Pattaya hotel before offering the allegedly bogus packages.

 

She was named in a warrant issued by the South Bangkok court in May as well as a similar one on Friday in Prakhanong.

Reading the article she is going to have a hard time getting out of this.  Why are some people so stupid?  Rhetorical question I know.  Just plain greed.
