Crime Vietnamese Scammers Busted in Home Raid in Nong Khai
Picture courtesy of Matichon. Cyber police have arrested nine Vietnamese nationals in a raid on two houses in Nong Khai province, where the suspects were allegedly operating a sophisticated online scam selling fake flight tickets and travel packages to victims in Vietnam. At a press conference held at the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) headquarters in Muang Thong Thani, Police Lieutenant General Trairong Phiewphan, CCIB Commissioner, alongside senior officers, announced the arrest of the scam gang following a multi-agency investigation. Authorities were tipped off by local residents in Tha Bo district, Nong Khai, who reported suspicious activities involving a group of over ten foreign nationals, believed to be Vietnamese. The group had recently rented high-end properties and were suspected of illegal employment. Acting on the intelligence, officers from CCIB Division 3 joined forces with Nong Khai Immigration Police, Tha Bo Police, Border Patrol Police, and local investigators to raid two houses in a gated housing estate in Moo 6, Tha Bo subdistrict. Inside, police discovered nine Vietnamese suspects, seven men and two women, all of whom had entered Thailand legally on tourist visas. However, the houses had been converted into makeshift offices, filled with desktop computers and workstations. Officers noted that the setup resembled a call centre operation, with staff appearing to respond to online customer queries. Initial investigations uncovered evidence linking the suspects to fraudulent websites offering hotel bookings, flight tickets, tour services, and even Vietnamese lottery sales. Immigration officers charged the group with “working without permission as foreign nationals”. Further digital forensics by cybercrime officers revealed the group was operating a scam via Facebook pages set up through Meta Business Suite, advertising cheap air tickets to Vietnamese nationals. Communication with victims was conducted via the Telegram app, using pre-written scripts in Vietnamese. Once victims transferred money to designated Vietnamese bank accounts, contact was severed. Colonel Apirak Champasri from CCIB revealed that mobile phones seized from the suspects contained images of fake flight confirmations, travel insurance documents, Vietnamese bank transfer slips and business cards from sham companies such as “VLINES Aircraft Company Limited” and “Airdulich.com”. Officers also found editable Word documents for fake travel insurance, and scripts in Vietnamese used to deceive victims. Investigators believe the operation was run as a structured criminal enterprise, with specific roles assigned to team members, such as content creators, document fabricators and logistics handlers. Police are coordinating with Vietnamese authorities, who confirmed that several complaints had already been filed by scammed victims. Joint evidence indicates that the gang also established a front company in Vietnam and created fake websites to support their fraudulent business. Additional charges were filed at Tha Bo Police Station, including conspiracy to commit fraud by five or more persons, membership of a criminal gang and criminal association, serious charges under Thai law. Lieutenant General Trairong added that if further evidence confirms the suspects are part of a transnational call centre crime syndicate, the case may be formally transferred to the CCIB for extended investigation under the remit of organised international crime.

UK Health Secretary Streeting Pledges Minimal Disruption as NHS Doctor Strike Starts
Courtesy of BBC | PA media Health Secretary Wes Streeting vows NHS stability as resident doctors in England kick off a major five-day strike today. Amid ongoing pay disputes, hospitals are only cancelling treatments in exceptional circumstances, maintaining both urgent care and routine services. In a bold move, senior doctors are stepping in for striking resident doctors—the new term for junior doctors—for the twelfth time. The British Medical Association (BMA) raises concerns about overworked staff, condemning the government’s failure to avert the walkout. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer criticised the BMA, suggesting its strike could undo recent NHS progress. While acknowledging the inevitable impact on NHS progress, Streeting insists on minimising patient disruptions. Despite the strike, NHS England assures the public that GP surgeries, A&E, and NHS 111 remain fully operational. Patients are encouraged to attend appointments unless notified otherwise. The government and the BMA failed to negotiate over non-pay issues such as exam fees and career paths, while Streeting insisted that pay discussions were not on the table. The BMA argues that, despite recent pay increases, adjusted for inflation, doctor pay has fallen by a fifth since 2008. Current salaries for resident doctors range from £38,831 to over £73,000, dependent on experience and overtime. BMA co-leaders Dr Melissa Ryan and Dr Ross Nieuwoudt emphasise that restoring pay is vital for improving working conditions. They lay responsibility at Streeting’s feet, suggesting his inaction led to the strike. As the situation unfolds, the NHS faces a critical juncture in balancing doctor advocacy with patient care.
