Phuket – A Thai couple were arrested in Phuket after they allegedly defrauded multiple victims for more than 20 million baht in damages by peddling false investments.

The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) reported this week that they have arrested a couple identified only as Mr. Sanit, 37, and Ms. Amphon, 34, at a rental room in Sri Soonthorn, Thalang.

 

The arrest followed an arrest warrant being issued by the Ayutthaya Provincial Court accusing both of fraud. The two suspects have rejected the accusation and stated they are innocent.

Am I the only person who wonders why these so called "master mind" scammers all seem not to have a pot to "PP" in yet they are supposed to have taken millions? 

Lets make this story clear: 

There are so-called "trading websites" as well as casinos and alike. 

To participate khun thai got to deposit money somewhere somehow, right?

For that purpose proprietors of such businesses used hundreds of bank accounts - to facilitate transactions.

So unlucky "gamblers" decided to do a cute trick: after losing their funds they demanded "refund". And this couple was stupid enough to give their ID or Bank accounts to owners of those "funny" sites. 

[I heard that its about THB1.000 per account and some 0.1% per transaction]
