In a significant breakthrough, Thai police have apprehended a woman accused of running a Facebook scam promising soap-packing jobs. The suspect, a 23-year-old identified as Sasikarn, was arrested on January 5th in Nakhon Ratchasima. Her arrest follows a warrant issued in October, linking her to a series of fraudulent activities.

 

The operation, supervised by Metropolitan Police Chief Siam Boonsom and the Crime Suppression Division, targeted Sasikarn, a Saraburi province resident, for charges including public fraud and computer-related deception. She is believed to have allowed her bank account and phone number to be used for the scam.

 

 

Victims reported being lured by a Facebook page offering soap-packing jobs in exchange for a membership fee and further payments for necessary equipment. These payments were never refunded, and the fraudulent page disappeared once transactions were completed.

 

During interrogation, Sasikarn claimed she opened a bank account at the request of a casual acquaintance, not receiving any compensation for it. Nevertheless, she remains in custody at the Khlong Luang Police Station and is due to face legal proceedings for her alleged involvement in the scam.

Shouldn't be too hard to follow the money.  She should stay in lock-up until all of the victims have had all of their money back, plus the same amount again for their pain.
