webfact Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Police arrested two Thai women, who worked at a pawnshop in the Isaan province of Nong Khai, for stealing gold accessories pawned by customers and hocked them again for more than 170 million baht. A representative of the Easy Money pawnshop in Pak Kret district of Nonthaburi province, near Bangkok, filed a complaint at Pak Kret Police Station in October of last year. The representative reported that two employees, a 30 year old woman named Jeerawan Krasae-in and a woman named Sarinthip Pandaliska, committed the fraudulent activities. According to the representative, the pawnshop discovered that the amount of gold accessories pawned by customers was less than the amount of money lent to customers. Moreover, the shop discovered some counterfeit gold accessories, despite the shop having a procedure in place to check them before taking them from customers. After further investigation, police found that Jeerawan and Sarinthip stole the gold accessories from the pawnshop. They then hired other people, giving them 1,000 to 2,000 baht, to pawn the stolen gold at the pawnshop and transfer the money into their bank accounts. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ MGR Online ภาคเหนือ Full story: The Thaiger 2024-01-04 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

eyeman Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Seems odd to me that this could continue for more than 2 years to 170million baht without anyone noticing the ever growing deficit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they thought they'd never be found out? Jeerawan confessed to her crime, saying that she and Sarinthip spent all their money on online gambling. The only asset she had left was her house worth 4 million baht. Idiots Edited January 4 by hotchilli 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiots I don't know who is more stupid, the pawn shop for allowing a nearly 4 million GBP deficiency to occur and go unnoticed, or the staff who then managed to gamble it all away online and be left with less than 100K GBP? Gambling online, they'd already hit the jackpot, What were they trying to win? They could have played it smart and salted it away over two years, then when caught between one and five years jail cut in half for admitting it. A nice two years work. They only reason they should have been doing anything online was booking flights out of Thailand. Now the only place they are going is jail. Ah well, easy come, easy go. Morons.
