PHUKET: The Department of Special Investigation denied providing “protection services” for illegal businesses in a notification released yesterday, which claimed that con artists in Phuket were using the department’s name to squeeze people for protection money.

“We received reports that there are people using the DSI’s name to collect money from business owners who are involved in the illegal employment of migrant workers, as well as those who are involved in trading pirated goods,” DSI Director Udom Phetcharakut said.

The reports of the incidents were filed from across the department's Region 8, which encompasses Surat Thani, Phuket, Krabi, Phang Nga, Ranong, Chumphon and Nakorn Sri Thammarat, Mr Udom said.

“There is no such thing as ‘protection money’ that can be paid to DSI officers,” he said.

All provinces in Region 8 were ordered to take immediate action against con artists using the DSI name.

“Anybody who has information about people illegally using the DSI name should contact us at our Region 8 Operations Center: 077-600606,” he said.

Yes sir, absolutely no such thing smile.png

That pretty much sums up this thread.... might as well close it now.

Not quite over yet, we have yet to hear how 'someone' has 'proof' that these imposters were actually infiltrators from the Democrat party who are out to discredit the DSI...!

Report to DSI: Hello dear DSI! I am a criminal who just got squeezed for protection money by use of DSI name. I thought you should know.

Reply to Criminal: Hello dear Criminal! Thank you for reporting, we assure you that DSI will never use DSI name to squeeze protection money from criminals. Do not worry, since now everybody knows you are a criminal, you are off the hook from extortion. So, please continue your usual criminal activity and report to us again, if those con artists use the DSI name again. Thank you for you cooperation.

Perhaps they are upset because someone else is using DSI's name to extort protection money; and by Buddha--only the DSI is entitled to use the DSI name to extort protection money! Excuse me, donations.
