Popular Post prakhonchai nick Posted January 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2023 A few more details of this case would not go amiss. What did the bank staff do? What punishment did they receive from the court for their part in the 200MB granny grab.? Are they still working for Kasikorn Bank.............same branch or moved to some rural upcountry branch? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I uncovered a bank worker stealing interest from foreigners and got a former minister of finance to investigate. I was successful in getting the large bank to start giving many foreigners interest but was told if I asked to get it backdated, the woman would lose her job. Reluctantly, I never asked for back payments. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bht 207 M is a LOT of money for an older lady to have sitting in the bank. It's a lot for anyone to have sitting in the bank - $A9,000,000 (Australian)! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Banana7 Posted January 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2023 There should be prison time for the criminals. This is a major problem with Justice in Thailand. It seems the Judges don't punish many criminals, they just try to return things the way were before the crime. There should be major punitive damages awarded. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things like that only happen if a complaint is made to the police. The question of why no complaint was made would have a few interesting answers methinks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years back it was common to see many Thais on the street with bank book in top pocket. I asked a colleague about it. He laughed, and said 'they keep their book handy so every day it's easy to pop into the bank and get the balance updated, because they don't trust the bank'. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickeymaus Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 3 hours ago, Laughing Gravy said: No doubt the apologists will be here to defend this but from my opinion of 20 years within Thailand, when it comes to money many people have little morals. This story just highlights this and confirms what I have seen and know. From my experience, there are mostly small scammers in Thailand. Sometimes fun to watch how inexperienced they are. Nothing compared to those in the western world. That's where the biggest scammers are. Bernie Madoff for instance. But their are countless others. Some of them are even big companies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If mum is worth 200 million baht, the daughter won't be short of a baht nor the contacts required to ensure she avoids prison time. There is seldom justice to be found when dealing with the crimes of the Thai rich. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
