Three women reported a scammer who fraudulently lured them into investing in cars for rental purposes and then disappeared, leaving them with massive debts. The unidentified man used online dating platforms to identify his victims, leaving almost 20 people defrauded and causing damages exceeding 50 million baht.

 

Ronnarong Kaewpetch, the Chairperson of the organization for justice, and the three victims met Pol. Col. Sawek Boonjan, the head investigator at the Central Investigation Bureau, requested the arrest of the man identified only as Jirakorn.

 

Jirakorn had asked ‘A’ a 29 year old online business owner to move in with him in Khon Kaen province, where he claimed to own a car rental business. A said…

 

“We met online and got to know each other and finally became lovers.”

 

B, another victim, knew Jirakorn through Facebook, where he pretended to be an emergency room nurse. He convinced the 32 year old woman to buy seven cars in her name, claiming she was helping him with his vehicle rental business.

Is that hard to understand that if you are in a dating app and if someone finally come up with something that is not about dating you should run away? Jesus christ!

I'm sorry...but they deserve it...lesson learnt!
