Scam Warning!

Featured Replies

Most of you know of the payment online payment processor PayPal. Well there is a copycat that is known as AsianPay. www.asianpay.com

BE WARNED! DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICE! Many people, including myself have lost thousands of dollars from this Chiang Mai based company. They are happy to receive money, but when it come to paying what is owed they simply delay payment or do not pay at all. I have been owed money from them for 11 months now. The Thai police are ignorant to online crime and such things as e-currencies so AsianPay has been able to operate with very little interference.

If you have been scammed or are wanting more information about these people please visit this website, http://kanitamo.com/carlossorioasianpaychi...leourmoney.html

If you have any ideas how to stop such a scam please PM me or contact the email link on the website.

Attached are the emails that have been sent to me over the last 11 months. Does anyone have any idea of what I can do legally. The incompetence of law enforcement and the lawyers in this country are baffling. I would hate to have to take the law into my own hands and end up putting myself into a worse situation.

believe me, the patients has been required because the Thai law enforcement don't see it as their problem. They say it is a civil matter (which means they have no idea what crime this is) and the lawyers are just a baffled about crime committed on the internet as the incompetent police in Chiang Mai.

Thailand seems like it is the perfect breeding ground for online fraud.

Have you asked CM Police to check with Immigration if Carlos is still in Thailand?

I'd be surprised if that is his real name.

10/10 for the heads-up.

We have reason to believe that he is hiding in Italy because of the IP address that is shown from his emails.

Mrs. Supattra Charoenku who is also a director of the company is still in Thailand and is still conducting business (fraud).

Supposedly Mr Sorio is being sought after by the police, but I have only heard this secondhand. Mrs. Supattra Charoenku states that Mr Sorio is still in Thailand and is still managing his "business".

This whole thing is very confusing and I understand why the Thai police want nothing to do with it. I feel terrible for the people who have lost millions of baht. I have only lost just over a $1000 now, however I want to see an end put to this crime in order to prevent other victims from losing God knows how much. If you visit their websites they are all still operating and still accepting money and e-currencies.

Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated and more than likely rewarded.

Take a trip to Bangkok and visit the Economic Crime Division of The Royal Thai Police which is responsible for such crime. Their Office is located at:

The Royal Thai Police

Economic Crime Investigation Division

Central Investigation Bureau

North Sathorn Road, Bangrak District

Bangkok 10500

Title of Head: Commander

Tel.:(662)235.28.27

Fax:(662)234.68.06

Superintendent of Sub-Division 3

Tel.:(662)234.10.64(ext. 117)

Fax:(662)266.78.55

Cheers.

You did not answer the question.

Below are the websites that are run by or at least managed by AsianPay and Carlo Sorio. Be wary of using any of these services. The owner is under investigation for fraud and is currently on the run. He owes millions of baht to customers. Lies and deception used to explain as to why there is no payment or why it is late. Warn others against these sites as well. If you decided to use these websites don't forget that I warned you. ALL THESE ARE RUN OUT OF THAILAND AND THE AUTHORITIES ARE DOING NOTHING TO SHUT THEM DOWN!

Yes I called the CM police and they said it was not their problem. They told me it was a civil matter. Others have gone to Chiang Mai and have had more luck than me. The police went to their house and he could not be found. The manager of the real estate office says that she had not seen him for nearly a year. The police failed to contact immigration to find that simple fact.

I will take your advise however and continue beating my head against a brick wall to see if I can find any more information.

The people that had more luck than me reported their story at this website http://kanitamo.com/carlossorioasianpaychi...leourmoney.html

I will be joining them soon in a second trip to the area.

Don't think Paypal are above this kind of game. They have stolen my money and boast that they answer to nobody - least of all their customers.

When they decide they need your money more than you do there is nothing you can do.

Thanks for the heads up on this company. I wish you the best of luck.

Yes, heres an idea, what about if idiots stopped giving them money?

BTW, not to be confused with the reputable, professional and completely above-board company Asia Pay (www.asiapay.com) who I've used and found to be fine.

Are you saying that you are an idiot if you use this one "Asia Pay (www.asiapay.com) who I've used and found to be fine"
