mcd Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 In the early hours of Saturday Morning, Mr. Thomas George aged 66 from England made his way to Pattaya Police Station to complain about a theft which had taken place in Soi Diana Inn near the entrance to Soi Beokeow. The man who had been drinking all night was approached by two transsexuals on a motorbike as he walked along the street. They approached Mr. George and in the process “picked his pockets”. Nearly 20,000 Baht in cash, a credit card and other personal items were stolen from his pockets. A full description of the two suspects was given to Police and a search is now underway. http://www.pattayacitynews.net/news_30_06_50_4.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crudy21 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Why someone would walk around with that much in their pocket at that time on day astounds me, still i hope the poor old boy gets it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Mouse Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Tourists at night time should walk around a carrying a cattle prod to ward off ladyboy bike riders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 A special unit of the Tourist Police armed with cattle prods zapping anyone carrying that kind of cash around would be helpful too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilHarries Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 A special unit of the Tourist Police armed with cattle prods zapping anyone carrying that kind of cash around would be helpful too. A good idea that! What the hel_l gets into the head of these people that causes them to go out on a bender till the early hours of the morning carrying that amount of dosh is beyond me. OK maybe his hotel doesn't have room safes but what's wrong with travellers checks? Or split the money up between all your pockets, at least that way the sticky fingered LB's only get a percentage take. They should make all tourists in Pattaya sign a waiver saying they'll not hold Thailand, the Thai people nor the Thai police force responsible for large amounts of cash lost to pickpockets when drunk and/or staggering around late at night. What a wonker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallacern Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Where can I get a cattle prod. Not for the katoys or kamoys but for the soi dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinthee Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Where can I get a cattle prod. Not for the katoys or kamoys but for the soi dogs. Haven't you heard? You're not allowed to flame soi dogs on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Where can I get a cattle prod. Not for the katoys or kamoys but for the soi dogs. Tahe a camera flash and remove the bulb, leaving bare wires. Makes an awesome substitute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draggons Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Even some of the small camera flashes can give a hel_l of a belt, better when you solder a couple of sewing needles onto the contacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinthee Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 There used to be a "how-to" video on youtube about how to make your own taser gun with a cheap camera. Not sure if it's still there because no can get utube in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartender100 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I would be embarrassed to admit it,i love the way he's sticking his finger up at someone who trying to help him. Sorry no sympathy,don't put all your eggs etc,why carry all that cash and your c/c ,looks like a insurance scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Must have been something going on if the LB's could get close enough to pick his pockets. I think, as per usual, the whole story hasn't come out. Soundman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in fairness to the finger up the nose victim, the types of LBs who do this regularly are notorious for getting close to their marks in just this fashion by feeling them up. In Phuket, there are many instances where they had to be cracked down on by the BIB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Those things are sold all day long in Pattaya. Just the sound alone should discourage any approach from a Katoey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
