May 27, 2025May 27 Bangkok Mini-Marathon Scam Leaves 1,800 Runners Stranded Nearly 2,000 runners were scammed at a fake mini-marathon at Suan Luang Rama IX Park in Bangkok. The "Run for Destination 2025" event promised prizes, gifts, and sponsorships but delivered chaos, with no real setup, just one confused organiser. Participants, sponsors, and service providers lost money, with registration fees between 450–2,000 baht. Even outsourced staff and a medal supplier were unpaid. MK Restaurant, falsely linked to the event, plans legal action. Police intervened, and 70 official complaints have been filed, but no charges yet. The event company was only recently registered, raising further suspicion.
