The British Playboy Living In Thailand Who's Made A Fortune Out Of Cold Calling

[Boater]

At first glance, the picture seems to show a typical tourist enjoying the attractions in a bar in Thailand. With two scantily-clad young women snuggling up to him, he looks as though he doesn’t have a care in the world.

But the story of Gary McNeish – and his reason for setting up home on the other side of the world – is not quite so simple.

For yesterday he became the subject of a legal first when he and his business partner were fined by the Information Commissioner’s Office using new powers to clamp down on firms which send spam text messages.

While sources close to the 25-year-old web designer this week said he was ‘living like a playboy’ in Thailand, he now faces the prospect of being pursued through the courts here for £140,000. His business partner Chris Niebel has been fined £300,000.

The good life: Gary McNeish, seen with two female friends relaxing in a Thai bar, faces being pursued for a £300,000 fine

Can we have less of the vulgar language please. It might impress your mates in the playground but you're not in the playground at the moment.

[vtjforyou]

Stupid people would be caught even on Mars...

[meatboy]

are they going into the jet-ski business?

[GuestHouse]

The courts want £140,000 from him?!

Some might say a pittance compared with what the two young ladies alongside him have in mind.

By the ICO - The Information Commissioner’s Office.

This is an independent public body.

They have not been prosecuted by any court.

I suggest reading such articles and looking up the words one doesn't understand.

bloody hell its a long time since i had one of them on my knee never mind two,i wonder did he buy one and get one free.

He is 25 and the two girls he is pictured with are probably 18-20, why do you think he likes 'very, very young girls'?

[farang000999]

It seems like guys like this that are the small fries end up getting in bigger trouble than the guys who still tens of millions or billions and can lawyer up and end up only giving back a fraction of their loot.

The ladies look about 30 years old to me. How do you guys know they are 18 to 20 years of age?

Firstly, Boater, thanks for sharing. Secondly, not sure what some of these other posters are on about. Defending these guys? I hope the law fries the both of them. Perhaps it will prove some sort of deterrent for these scumbags wanting to hide in Thailand to engage in their criminal enterprise.

OK Ive gotta admit I am quite hopeless in guessing the age of Thai people

Whatever point is this, hes a scumbag and deserves what he gets.

He will probably get heavily fined followed by filing for bankruptcy, and start over fresh again.

I wasn't offended in the slightest and wasn't defending him, just wondered how you knew he likes 'very, very young girls'. They are a few years younger than him, if at all, so I didn't see the problem. I do see the problem with what he did to warrant this story but the picture with the girls, up to him.

[farang000999]

how do you know that? just from looking and guessing?

To me, 35 year old women are very young girls.

Good. Spammers are a totally pointless pain the arse. I hope he gets deported for working without a permit too.

As for who he sleeps with, I couldn't care less and I dont even want to know.

Maybe a health warning should be issued here. This article is from The Daily Mail in the UK, which is famous for two things. Making up story's, and for their unswerving support for Hitler and the Nazi Party during the 1930s - 1940s.
