Woman confesses to cryptocurrency scam involvement after husband’s suicide

[snoop1130]

 

A 31 year old woman named Priyanuch was arrested today, in connection with an online investment scam involving cryptocurrency trading. Upon interrogation, she confessed that her husband had encouraged her to open six bank accounts for the scam, and he later took his own life after learning he was wanted by authorities.

 

Priyanuch, a mother of three children aged 13 years and two months, was apprehended at Future Park Rangsit, Pathum Thani yesterday. Investigations led by Assistant Commissioner of the Police Crime Technology Division, Police Lieutenant General Damrongsak Kittiprapats, traced six bank accounts used for the fraudulent cryptocurrency investment scheme, causing almost a million baht in damages.

 

Priyanuch confessed that around April 2020, her boyfriend, Madman Srisapetch, convinced her to open six bank accounts for online investing. In May 2023, Madman took his own life after discovering he was wanted for fraud.

 

The scam lured investors with promises of high returns but failed to deliver on withdrawals. In total, damages amount to 537,229 baht (US$ 15,522) in one case and 269,512 baht (US$ 7,787) in another. Investigating officers coordinated with the suspect’s family to care for the children and provided 2,000 baht (US$ 58) as initial expenses before handing her over to investigators in Saimai to proceed with the case.

The result of a culture that is conditioned to be unable to ask questions and being used to a language which abhors clarity and prefers vagueness.
