Phuket – A Chinese woman who is on a 1,316 day visa overstay was arrested after social media shared her story of asking for money from mostly foreigners many times at a gas station in Phuket.

A story of a foreign woman asking for money from mostly foreigners inside a gas station four times over several days on Bypass Road in Rassada went viral in social media earlier this week.

 

The Phuket Provincial Commander Major General Sermpan Sirikong told The Phuket Express yesterday (December 16th) about the incident. They have tracked down and found Ms. Fan Yang, 47, Chinese national. She was staying at a budget hotel in Kamala.

She stayed in Kamala and yet traveled across the island to beg? Very strange.

[Jerno]

Nobody in China willing to dish out for her begging there?  She'll find out soon.

So a viral story on social media led to her being arrested.  Why could the "smart" car not have tracked her down in the previous 1315 days?

Because the 90 day reports are so successful they thought they maybe didn't need the not so smart car. More a dumb car.

She said she also asked foreigners for their bank accounts claiming she intended to pay them back later. Some foreigners wanted money back but some didn’t want anything according to her

 

Seriously ? Some idiots gave her their bank details ? IQ level of foreigners has just dropped 20%

It was very early this morning when I first read the headlines, and I thought it read '1,316 Chinese Women arrested'. 

[Deerculler]

No wonder Farang have a bad name and many cop the flak from immigration for the stupid comments on here at times.

1316 days.  Beginner level.

[Scouse123]

I wonder how she survived during the Covid period with little or no tourists nor locals moving around to give her funds?

 

Unless like others, she is a professional beggar, they are very common in London UK and the USA.

 

Anyway, off to China you go

[MichaelHunt]

I don't blame people for not wanting to go back to China. I would do the same if I were Chinese.

You mean the BMWs with a laptop connected to mobile data?

 

I hear the new ones are state of the art and have their own WiFi connection.

[Old Croc]

I'm confused.

Considering the good people on this forum constantly assure us that overstayers are harmless and contribute to Thai society, why did she have to beg for money, or worse, try to get bank account numbers?

I figured that "smart car" actually is a car connected to social media. Amazing ????!!!!

Chinese are 'Jin' not 'farang'.

You need to understand the different Thai racial slurs before you use them yourself.

Actually they do.

[An0n]

In case if any officer (either police or immigration or else) is reading -

Your process is extremely stupid, collecting paper after paper all day long, Wen will you ever learn to use computers and learn to consider about convenience of others?

Also if you have so much free time browsing around social networks, do your job efficiently and improve yourselves, otherwise nobody would wanna stay in this country in the end, and you'll lose all businesses.
