500 victims accuse social media influencer of 85 million baht gold scam
Over 500 victims filed a complaint against a social media influencer for operating a gold scam that caused losses exceeding 85 million baht. Representatives of the victims, yesterday, October 7, visited the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau in Pak Kret district, Nonthaburi province, near Bangkok, to seek justice after social media influencer Promtada “Mae Bainard” Nakcharoen, the company director of Tada Gold store, was implicated. One of the victims, Maysa, told ThaiRath that she discovered Mae Bainard and his gold shop through livestream videos on the TikTok app. Mae Bainard frequently launched jaw-dropping promotions to attract attention from netizens, offering, for example, 1 gramme of gold for 1,500 baht, whereas the market price is nearly 3,000 baht. Mae Bainard repeatedly assured his followers and clients that he could obtain gold accessories at very low prices because he purchased them directly from a factory. However, he refused to disclose the name of the factory. Maysa and other victims revealed that, although they initially received real gold accessories, they later lost their money when they placed further orders. There was also a VIP group whose members purchased large amounts of gold, often totalling 500,000 baht or more each time. The victims stated that Mae Bainard cultivated an image of trustworthiness by inviting numerous Thai celebrities and influencers to his birthday party. Their relationships with these notable figures led the victims to believe he would not deceive them; unfortunately, this was not the case. Acting Commander of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, Jirawat Payungtham, reported that there are over 500 victims in this case, with losses exceeding 85 million baht. Of these, 240 victims have already lodged complaints with the police, while the remainder have yet to do so. The commander explained that Mae Bainard’s actions constitute violations of criminal laws, the Computer Act, and the Consumer Protection Act. The police will interview each victim before summoning the suspect for questioning. The victims confirmed that this case is not related to the previous gold scam, which led to the arrest of two suspects, Korakarn “Mae Tak” Suwannabut and Karnphon “Pa Beer” Rueng-aram. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ ตำรวจไซเบอร์ – บช.สอท.

No travel insurance for me !
Which insurance company was it? I had the same thing two years ago and ended up paying the bill myself. Travel Insurance is a total scam. I'd be taking them to court as well. -

China’s Military Expansion and America’s Defense Deficiency
For sure, it won’t be a military invasion. This is detrimental to both China’s and Taiwan’s interests. The mainland Chinese and Taiwanese have relatives on both sides. Lots of inter-marriages as well. Integration would happen naturally. Taiwanese, being ethnic Chinese, are a practical and pragmatic people. As the west declines and China continues to rise, it’s in their interest to lean more towards China for its prosperity and security. I imagine that it will take some form of autonomous region, with its own governance while deferring to the central government in Beijing. -

Rapid Greening of Antarctica: Scientists Alarmed by Climate Change Impact
There fraudsters are not asking for your money though as they are taking it regardless to enrich themselves, and as long as there are enough useful idiots who believe humans have any significant impact on the climate then they will continue to get away with it. Labour in the UK are wasting £22bn of taxpayers money on ludicrous, unproven nonsense such as "carbon capture", which aims to capture just 2.4% of the total emissions per year of the UK's emissions and bury them in the ground, and the UK are responsible for just 1% of the global emissions anyway. They could have planted trees which have been doing this job free of charge for millions of years, but of course that would not make the rich people richer.
