webfact Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 In a surprising turn of events, a total of 95 mobile phones were discovered forgotten in a hotel room in Chiang Khong district, Chiang Rai province. Picture: Siam Rath On February 23rd, reporters learned that Lt. Col. Apipoo Muang Sai, from the 3101st Infantry Regiment, received a report concerning guests who had stayed at a certain hotel in the Sathang area of Chiang Khong district on February 22nd, 2024. It was reported that these guests had left behind a bag in their room, and despite the hotel's attempts, they couldn't reach the guests. Sensing something amiss, the hotel promptly notified authorities for investigation, reported Siam Rath.

Popular Post bradiston Posted February 24 Popular Post Share Posted February 24 (edited) So where're the tm30s? Names, nationalities, passport numbers. Isn't that what the much maligned tm30 is for? Shouldn't be diffilicult to track them. Straight to CM airport I guess. An aborted scam trip maybe. Were there any SIMs? Were they registered? Where were they bought? What network? Were any calls made? Edited February 24 by bradiston 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give them a chance they only just found the phones, plus they have many things to deal with, speeding cars, well I can't think of anything else but I am sure they are busy because you never see them out working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, quite so. Poor overworked police. Must be the only police force in the world that works 9-5. They're good at tracking suspects on CCTV though. Always seem to be able to locate suspects even in the next town. I don't suppose we'll get any follow ups on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dddave Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Many years ago, I stuck up a quick friendship with a young lady on Sukhumvit. We decided to pursue our developing amity in the comfort of her room, on the top floor of the Miami Hotel. Once there, I was surprised to see about 20 Nokia's splayed out on every flat surface, charger cables running like vines on a college wall. Turned out, she was sort of a dispatcher for a fellow who ran multiple massage/escort adds in the local press. She had to have a good acting voice as sometimes a customer would call one number and being unsatisfied with the cost of services offered, call the next on the page which was actually her again. She was pretty good at it. Actually, she was pretty adept at answering calls under a variety of difficult circumstances, as I was to find out.

Arindos Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 There is a sign in Chinese that looks like one for a mobile phone vendor, and the phones have stickers on the back of them so they are either for sale or unused bought phones. Surely it is a vendor who forgot a bag of phones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
