Bday Prang Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 With greed and stupidity being the two main facilitators of a scam, It looks like Thailand really does have the potential to become the South East Asian "hub" of something after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bday Prang Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 4 hours ago, internationalism said: so how the penny dropped and how they knew it was all scam? That is not explained. They were sending some packages to chiang mai. what was in them? why they were scared so much and why they did not go to their police station to clarify matters? Very valid point, there is something strange about this story even the way its written isn't quite right .. "Instead she got sucked into believing that she would be jailed for sending a package (probably containing drugs)" Wouldn't be surprised if it was made up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussienam Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 As an aside .... shows just how lucrative the medical industry is in Thailand. Over 4 Million Aussie dollars. Shows how accepting citizens are in paying police too, even though in this case it was a scam A scam where the scammers purported to be extortionate police. Wow. TIT.

DaveCW Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Of course, part of the problem is that folk are accustomed to the RTP asking for (or taking) money to see problems disappear - so perhaps that what these folk were thinking, maybe a clever scam after all ????

Berkshire Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 15 hours ago, SOTIRIOS said: ...Or Is One Of Them In On The Scam...(?) Was thinking the same. Maybe the daughter needed the money pronto and couldn't wait for her mommy to croak. Because seriously, no one can be that dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
