Popular Post webfact Posted February 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2023 Daily News Thai Caption: That's what being kind hearted gets you Daily News were in contact with a wealthy 58 year old furniture dealer in Nakhon Sri Thammarat's Thung Yai district after he parted with seven million baht in 40 bank transfers before he realised he had been conned. Nippon Tubantherng owns the "Peking" furniture shop in Tha Yang sub-district. He said that by September of last year a woman he reffered to as "A", 33, had become a regular customer. Often seeing each other they chatted frequently. One day she came in and they got talking about A's sister "B". A showed Nippon a picture, she was very attractive. But now she had developed fast spreading lung cancer and needed expensive medical treatments. Picture: Daily News She asked Nippon for financial help. She said that she had a Thai style house and 60 rai of rubber plantation worth 60 million baht. She could easily sell that to reimburse Nippon. Wanting to help out he agreed to loan her the money for surgeries and medication that over the months came to 40 bank transfers totalling 7 million baht. Picture: Daily News He asked for pictures of B in the hospital but A fobbed him off. Finally he came to realise that the picture of B that he had been shown was actually that of a Thai celebrity. And the "Thai Style Home" picture was bogus as well. Confronting A about this he was contacted by her husband "Ek" who offered him 300,000 baht to settle the debts "if you don't want any further trouble". After this Nippon went straight to the police. And contacted his lawyer in an attempt to get his money back from the tricky A. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-02-16 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

In this case the disease free "pops" were far better than the money. She was great in bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwill Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 She said she had property she could sell for 60 million to repay him. He should have told her to sell it to pay the bills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Guess he is not really that smart. Anyone in his position should have asked for proof of ownership, and some sort of lien on the property. And he should have insisted on meeting the sister. Real collateral and proof. Otherwise, it is just a fool and his money, and that makes it hard to be sympathetic. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post paul1804 Posted February 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2023 Why am I not surprised, I was married to a Thai lady for 13 years and know first hand how they think. When it coms to money all the rules & ethics get thrown out the window!!! I know they are not all tarred with the same brush but sadly a large percentage are!! 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinRacing Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 40 transactions assuming he got lucky for each transaction equals 175k per nookie. Overpaid by a factor of 100. What does a regular at a furniture shop do? Perhaps Christened every pice of furniture. I don’t know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
