Assuming that the transfer would be between Thai banks. I read it that he took the money out in fear of a frozen account and later deposited it into the scammers account, so possibly the bank allowed him to make a substantial cash withdrawal. Also that would not arouse the banks suspicions so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john donson Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 (edited) wow 3.2 million in savings, not bad for a farmer... probably never paid any income tax ... did the scammer buy bank info or something, that he knew to target this rich farmer ?

If you do not consider 3,2M baht in savings after working all his life is amazing. It equals to about 80 000 euro, that he basically must live on when not strong enough for working without any pension or retirement fund. that's what kids are for doubt he ever paid any tax to start with...

If I want to pull money on any ATM, I am limited to 26,000 Baht/day. If I want more, I need to go to the Bank and explain why I need so much money. If I want to transfer high amouts of money (like 800,000 baht) I need to spend several hours at the bank, filling all kind of formulars and wait 1 or 2 weeks before the transfer is done. How can this guy transfer +3 millions of baht between bank accounts instantly? Assuming that the transfer would be between Thai banks. If the transfer involves a foreign bank, transferring that amount would require 1 or 2 weeks. Something looks like this guy is pulling a leg.... seriously? I bounced millions from one bank to another, several times, online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no one demanding bribes for something to go away. They are asked to move their money to another account said to be for official business, during an investigation. I don't think you understand how it works. Nobody is going to move any money if they have nothing to hide or have done nothing wrong. They target people they know have something to hide, otherwise there is no point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely someone that knows of him and how much money he had passed information to the 'scammer'. Thailand is a country built on jealous informants. Nearly everything that happens is due to a tip-off or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like you don´t understand the level of stupidity, undereducation, lack of knowledge that exists. They have simply been told to do as authorities say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
