But to be quite honest, I think you are about to be scammed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soi224 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Sad to say, but a quick Google shows she is scamming you big time Wat Pho General Course Wat Pho Advanced Course So far, we're only up to 20,500 baht if she takes both. This place in Chiang Mai Thai Massage School of Chiang Mai does have a professional course for 37,000 baht. I'm sure if you look around, you can find more expensive, but clearly, uh, RUN!!!!

rgs2001uk Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I trust the next time you mention this lady you are smart enough to use the phrase, ex friend I used to know, but no longer have contact with. Thais got to love them, shoot them self in the foot every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedoctor Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 thanks to those who replied to be totally honest i text her son last night and asked him to resend me the cost of the course, without giving any reason, 7000 was the reply not the 70000bht as in the first text so i belive it was an honest mistake so ill give him the benerfit of the doubt. even though it put boubt in my mind when i saw 70000 i still belive this lady is honest and worthy of a my trust and friendship thanks again mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
