Accompanied by an attorney, a Thai woman set out to report an incidence of fraud. The victim, ‘A’ alleged that the culprit, known as Tae Teppabud Linliamthong, had duped her into buying a high-performance motorcycle and held back on the delivery of the bike since 2020.

 

At around 10.30am today, attorney Ronnarong Kaewphet and A visited the Royal Thai Police Sports Club on Bangkok‘s Vibhavadi Road to follow up on the case with Deputy Police Chief Surachate ‘Big Joke’ Hakparn.

 

The fallout came after Tae, also known as Jirakorn (surname withheld), misrepresented his high-performance motorcycle business and, in turn, scammed A. Tae initially assured a refund to the victim but also feigned ignorance about the entire problem. A is a long-standing motorcycle merchant and came into contact with Tae through a mutual acquaintance, Tong, who had close ties with her.
