A young woman was apprehended by Bangkok's Metropolitan Police for an alleged accommodation booking scam, causing losses of approximately 19,000 baht. Despite the 20-year-old, Kanyawee Prompichai, denying the charges, the police affirm that the evidence against her is strong.

 

The Special Branch Division, led by Police Lieutenant General Theeradech Thamsutee, arrested Kanyawee following two arrest warrants issued by the Min Buri Criminal Court. Charges include "fraud against the public" and "inputting false information into computer systems."

 

Kanyawee is alleged to have created fake booking pages on Facebook, MYSkhaoyai and Wala Hua Hin Villa, leading to a victim transferring money for rooms at Khao Yai and Hua Hin.

 

The victim later discovered the bookings were bogus at the hotels. Evidence presented by the victim led the investigation to uncover further fraudulent activities by Kanyawee, with additional victims reporting losses.

 

After her arrest, Kanyawee was detained for further legal proceedings at Kannayao Police Station. The quick actions by the police displayed their commitment to maintaining the law and public safety regarding online scams.

 

The public is advised to remain cautious when making online transactions and verify the legitimacy of platforms before transferring payment.
