Police Bust Russian Gang On Samui

[Rooo]

There are many scams going on with Russians involved. Story could just be the tip of an iceberg lurking

underneath Chaweng

Scams are run by all nationalities they are not exclusive to the Russians.Perhaps go back a few years & see who was running all the real estate scams on the island. Selective memory ?

Came through Poipet last week and noticed a lot or Russians coming through dressed as backpackers. They didn't have that look that backpackers have, shorts too neat and tidy, spotless T shirts and shoes that looked quite expensive and most definately well out of their twenties. Didn't look right in my eyes anyway.

Hmmm A lot of Russians coming through dressed as backpackers but didn,t have the Backpacker look. How then would one come to the conclusion that they where backpackers or not.? I use a backpack which is 25 years old, sometimes I,m very neat, especially ,doing visa runs. But like to let my hair down and wear unironed shorts, and tee,s sometimes. If I wear my suit and lug my Rucksack where would I stand in your view? fellow traveller,poor, rich. I have travelled in Russia, does that mean you could tell if you saw me a Poipet, maybe, if I had a fur hat on.

How dare they take the jobs away from the Thai mafia.
