A heartbroken man from Sisaket in northeastern Thailand warned others to be vigilant after falling prey to a deceptive nurse he met on an online dating app. Despite his genuine love and financial support, he was duped, losing over 100,000 baht (US$2,888).

 

Yesterday, Sek, a storekeeper, shared his heart-wrenching experience. In late October 2022, he met a nurse through a dating app, hoping for a fresh start after divorcing his wife of over seven years. Initially, the nurse, who had a good profile and a private hospital job, asked for help to pay an instalment on her condo in Bangkok, worth 15,000 baht. Trusting her, Sek agreed and transferred the money.

 

Later, she asked for additional financial assistance of 100,000 baht for her online business and installing the Internet at her home. Sek, believing in their sincere relationship, provided the requested funds.

I don't blame the police, as I don't in Thailand for failing in their duty.

Drugs will always be available if one wants to chase them.

My point was what started as a "safe recreational" smoke tuned into something far sinister for him.

And that same fate will be waiting for some Thai youths who think it's cool to smoke cannabis.

 

Did’nt. see anything about drugs.

Falling for scams can be based on ignorance. 
But if a person is very depressed , lonely it makes them vulnerable.  And effects their thinking.

So a person with good job cannot pay her bills? Sorry Noi my car is not working.

I reckon there would be a few lovestruck AN members who'd like to sue some of their ex girlfriends

May not have been a woman, nor a Thai. I believe USA guys call it a catfish. 

If they never meet yes. Could be a guy from overseas. If Sukhumvit I might guess where from.
