I have one real rule, anyone who approaches me is up to no good and I tend to treat them as such.

For example, I was at an ATM in Cambodia a few months ago and someone came over to me asking 'where my money is' - this is the woman who was just at the machine before I withdrew about $2000 in cash. She had waited until I used the machine 4 separate times to withdraw $500 and then approached.

I looked at her and told her to fqck off and she promptly made her exit. No time for these morons.
 

Had a similar problem in London when a Black man approached me while I was withdrawing cash, funny how a very load Ferk Off works.

They can be Swiss, the western part of Switzerland is French-speaking, three cantons are bilingual: in Bern, Fribourg and Valais, French and German are spoken.

 

Belgian, Monaco or from Luxembourg too.

He was on the phone, why didn’t he get quick photo when threatened or at least get photo of license plate or memorise plate and report straight away as think have done before or will do again, it’s not hard to run out of money here when you’re dumb and full of cum!

why would anyone in their right mind put together a scam that involves taking locals for less than 100 bucks? 

high exposure, low yield -- it's just stupid and makes zero sense.

 

I would assume that they are some of the dumbest humans alive.

Two foreign men, believed to be French nationals, reportedly attempted to extort 2,000 baht from a Thai tourist in the Patong area of Phuket on Monday.

 

The Thai victim shared his shocking experience on Monday, October 28, with Phuket Times to warn other tourists and to urge action from the local police. The victim revealed that the incident took place on Sai Gor Road in the Patong sub-district on Monday night.

 

He explained that he parked his motorcycle on the left lane of the road to answer a phone call. While he was on the phone, two foreign men approached him on a black motorcycle. One of them tapped him on the shoulder and demanded 2,000 baht in cash.

 

According to the Thai man, the foreigners then threatened him and appeared as if they were about to harm him, prompting him to quickly ride away on his motorcycle. He stated that he was frightened but had to compose himself to escape from the foreign suspects.

 

The victim believed that the two foreigners were French nationals due to their accents while speaking English, although he was not entirely certain of this assumption.

 

He expressed confidence that he was not the first victim of these two foreigners, deducing from their actions and body language, which displayed no signs of fear or hesitation. The man urged anyone who had experienced a similar situation to come forward and share their accounts to warn others.

 

The victim added that he had never known or expected the Patong area to have become a dangerous place and a haven for foreign criminals.

 

Many online commenters asked the man to share any dashcam footage from his motorcycle as evidence, while others urged him to file a complaint with the police and seek security camera footage to support his claim.

 

A Thai woman commented that she had previously witnessed a group of Russian nationals begging for money on Phuket’s beaches and attached a video of the alleged suspects.

 

Another Thai man claimed in the comments section that some French nationals in Phuket regularly carried knuckledusters and other weapons, with some even possessing illegal firearms.

When I lived in Phuket every year around high season Phuket was full of various French (Algerian) gangs, resulting in daily fights and problems. Probably same guys. Absolute filth that Thailand does not need and should not tolerate.

predictable response, though more subtle and arriving later than expected

Might have been Belgian or French Canadian. Either way remarkable a Thai can recognise English with a French accent.

Perhaps they were wearing black and white stripey jumpers, had strings of onions around their necks, smelt of garlic and had handlebar moustaches....

They were clearly French as the clever play of words in the headline indicates?
