Popular Post webfact Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 A 60 year old woman lost over 2 million baht in gold after it was mistakenly thrown out with the rubbish by her unaware grandchild. The fortune was later discovered by a waste collector, who initially believed it to be counterfeit. The police were involved in the recovery of the gold, and it was returned to its rightful owner. Wandee today reported her loss to the local police in Pluak Daeng, Rayong. She revealed that on January 1, she placed her valuable gold items in two bags, which were then mistakenly thrown away by her grandchild. The gold items included six gold bars, six necklaces, five bracelets, five Buddha amulets, three diamond rings, a gemstone ring, a diamond brooch, eight gold rings, a pair of gold earrings, two pairs of diamond earrings, and a diamond bracelet. These were all placed in a red and black bag and left outside her room. A local waste collector, riding a motorcycle with a sidecar, later found the bags of gold while collecting rubbish. Upon realising her mistake, Wandee was devastated and reported her misfortune to the Pluak Daeng Police Station. She was immensely relieved and grateful when she was informed that her gold had been recovered and would be returned to her, reported KhaoSod. by Nattapong Westwood Picture courtesy of KhaoSod Full story: The Thaiger 2024-01-03 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

brianthainess Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) Put her gold in a black rubbish sack, as you do. I mean why would you keep it in a safe, when a plastic rubbish sack will do the job. What could go wrong. Edited January 4 by brianthainess 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
