Phuket woman runs from Grab rider after fake cash promise

[Video News]

 

A Grab motorcycle rider in Phuket shared a viral video of a female passenger who fled without paying her fare after a ride from Rawai to Patong. Claiming her banking app had insufficient funds, she promised to pay in cash from home—only to sprint away moments later. The clip shows the stunned rider waiting by the roadside as she bolts past. Thai netizens sympathised and shared similar experiences, with some advising upfront fares or holding valuables. It’s unclear if police were notified or what the fare amount was.
