I picked up a copy of Pattaya Trader magazine (October edition) and was reading through it when I noticed on page 40 a large head-shot photograph of guess who?

Here is the write up (taken from the private personals ad's) of Pattaya Trader Magazine.

" Personal young businessman from Canada, can speak Thai, I am 36 years old, I live in Thailand 6 years and can speak Thai, I want take care a good lady and she can take care me, I give lady 50,000 baht per month from Harry (Tel # follows). "

If you live in Pattaya and don't know him; be warned, he is a convicted con-man (see link below).

syd, why not send off an email to the paper letting them know/warning them? (might not get anywhere, but at least you tried, right?)

Good idea.

When unsuspecting Thai females respond to this advert, it can only result in financial/property/valuables loss and then heartbreaking misery for the victims.

From what I can remember of the last time his name popped up on TV, he was also involved in some sexual impropriety, can't quite remember the details, so not just a financial problem for females.

After read up a bit on him, its pretty bad. As moss says, there is more to him than just wanting to rip people off. I think we owe it to others (and ourselves!) to report him in any way possible when we see something with his name (or his various Aliases). Those were great links syd, and thanks so much for this info. I think a good idea to post in the main forum also...i dont think it breaches any rules..? Anyway good luck Syd and thanks again.

Probably does breach a rule or two, but there is no love for him amongst a group of posters on here and certainly elsewhere on forums.

For the public good says I.

lets hope the thai lady he takes cons him first
