TheWalkingMan Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I hate crime! But lugging around 3.5k Euro in scandal down is not the smartest thing to do. I hope they catch the crook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarangBuddha Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 REMOVED Or if her and her farang partner are rich enough that carrying around almost US$ 4000 in a handbag is normal...well, I'm sure the Thai needs the money more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

473geo Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Considering a girl recently walked out with a room safe in a plastic bag, might be one reason for carrying her belongings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Maybe the bag snatcher was her real boyfriend, and it was a set-up. agree here ..... I spoke to the motorbike thief this afternoon and he assured me he had hoped to pinch a couple of thousand Baht only. The contents came as a huge shock to him but he has promised me 25% of the currency exchange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
