A 29 year old woman alleged to be a part of a scamming ring was apprehended by the Cyber Police in a residence in Chon Buri yesterday. Accused of defrauding a retired female doctor in Chumphon and causing losses of over 101 million baht, she was brought in under an arrest warrant issued on November 4, 2022.

 

At a residence located in Najomtien, Sattahip district, police found a woman known as Chompoonut, who was identified as the suspect in the arrest warrant 2352/2565.

 

The allegations were numerous, ranging from masquerading as others, running a fraudulent operation, and involvement in international criminal organisations, to injecting computer systems with false or misleading data and money laundering.

This relates back to September 25, 2022, when an unidentified suspect called the doctor’s phone directly. The victim, a former geriatric doctor at a hospital in Chumphon and past head of a medical education centre, is now retired and operates a private clinic in the same province with her daughter.

 

 

First, this doctor must have done something/s very bad to agree to pay 100 millions to hide it, and second, this is a very clever Thai woman con artist, give her a job as a crime buster as she think and act as a criminal already.

The woman is known as Dalmatian I suppose but now in a spot of bother ????

You should have read the article properly, she did not transfer the money to hide misdeeds she was conned into transferring it so that it "could be investigated" ( and her being subsequently cleared) for money laundering. 

Thailand is becoming the one the worlds leaders for scammers and gun crime/murders, every day you read about the "ones that reported" I am sure add to that the drunk drivers including police officers - this becoming a very dangerous place

I read nothing like that on Thaiger. There must have been some reason she 'thought she may be guilty'. And that's a lot of money to have in (and now out of) the bank.

"I read nothing like that on Thaiger".

Before unjustifiably disparaging her for no reason, you should have read the article in full, then, properly...

"...or transfer all her money for inspection by the Audit Department of the AMLO Office".

 

"There must have been some reason she 'thought she may be guilty'".

There was, the reason was that she was coerced into it and was being conned by a scammer.

 

"And that's a lot of money to have in (and now out of) the bank".

So what, is it illegal for a retired medical professional and owner of a private business to be wealthy?

Anyone who transfers millions of their hard earned, or otherwise, Baht to another account on the details in a phone call, without meeting the person must need a geriatric doctor. And then do it many more times.

In my experience, the name of the receiver is shown before transfers can take place.

That may well be the case, but so what?   It's still no reason for her to be unjustifiably disparaged.
