truckerjoe Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Sorry, but I cannot see anything humorous about this at all. Did anybody notice the old fat farang woman sitting at the back of the restaurant? As the fat man nears the exit, he appears to discretely say something to the woman and then she gets up and follows him out. Can`t really tell, but it is possible that the couple are Russian. Yes I noticed that, they seemed to be russian out of KFC together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exalll Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 How come the security camera follows the bloke as he goes to the bag? CCTV didn't, but the guy videotaping from the screen did Before everyone jumps down my throat for being ignorant, let me admit that I don't know anything about CCTV technology or the technology of filming CCTV footage. I also wondered why the CCTV seemed to follow the fellow. tomazbodner suggests that it didn't, OK, again, I admit I don't understand CCTV technology. But according tomaz, the CCTV footage was immobile - as it usually is. Then, because someone filmed the CCTV footage, the camera was able to move to follow the "thief". Amazing!

Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 I've had a look at the video again, and I didn't see anyone leaving his bag there for the man in a vest to 'collect'. I would not persecuting this fellow until I see the details of the rest of the video. Too many people have unfairly fallen victims in this country. TIT Time to take your meds. I hope you retired from teaching long ago. The future of our children depends on it.Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app I've still got a few decades to bag before my retirement, mate. Even then, I am certain that I still won't be as partial and easily convinced from a single story. And yes, I teach our children to tread carefully into the future, and not make subjective and hasty decisions based on insufficient information. I'm just wondering why the fat obese overweight large gentleman left his bag so far away from where he was eating. If he wasn't careful, some fat thieving bastard might have stolen it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Carrerakiss Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 At least he dint get the phone! This guy looks like half the male tourists in Thailand so It might be hard for the police who think all farang look the same anyway. This proves the point that one should NEVER leave anything unattended. I leave my wife alone all the time. Never had a problem..........sigh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JoeThePoster Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 I wonder why that chappie stepped out of KFC to take the phone call. Couldn't he just stay in near his bag and yell at the top of his voice like everyone else? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suradit69 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I am (almost) disappointed. I was sure the victim was going to mention that he had his wallet (with 200,000+ baht in it), credit/atm cards, passport, 500,000 baht in gold jewellery and his Ferarri all in that bag ! That's generally limited to farang and Asian tourists strolling about Beach Rd in Pattaya at 03:00 in the morning. You omitted the three mobile phones and Fabergé egg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another well planned heist, with all the elements of an organized bank robberyl 1. The front man 2. The lookout 3. The getaway vehicle. I suggest everyone cling tightly to their backpacks, as this Organization is going to go on a crime spree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailblue Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Must admit he could be an ozzie. If he is on Thai Visa he has a wig and commenced a serious diet by now. Probably also dressing a lot better to put us off the scent and gone for a holiday in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirchai Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 He needs catching and his hands cut off !!! and you sound stupid I repeat, He needs catching and his hands cut off. Welcome to Thaivisa newbie Tycoon Hope you get the hang of things soon. Please don't be so hard on that fat hansom guy! He'd already lost his hair. One hand would be enough. If he does it again,well.......- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winniej Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I can't understand why there are so many losers that think they are so smart that they trivialize someone's bag being stolen .

KuhnPaen Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) The headline wasn't very PC. It should have been more like "Rotund, hair-challenged, foreigner in beach appropriate attire caught pilfering an unattended bag at area KFC." That said, I hope they catch the lard ass.

sirchai Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) As much as i dislike being 'observed' by CCTV's ..they are definately good evidence after the fact...no denials likely from this guy once he's collared.. But if he were Thai, would probably look at the video and say: Oh darn, I was 'sleepwalking' again .... Have you ever thought about expats living here, who are married to Thais, working here, paying tax, etc...? Don't you have other things to do than writing such nonsense? I do have some good Thai friends as well, they wouldn't like your speech at all.- Edited November 15, 2013 by sirchai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 And you lot, less of the hair loss thing, as mine went with wind when I was a late teen.

Bender Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I found this story completely fishy... So far we have no clue why he picked up the bag and if he really did leave KFC with it. Funny thing, there is only one camera? A wild guess will be he did think the owner did forget his bag and maybe he did bring it back to the cashier. I did it twice in my life!!!!!! Also the owner claimed he was outside the shop, so he might have seen coming out, really fishy! Recently we have a lot of tourist who get stabbed, assaulted, robbed in Thailand. Maybe the crooked police just pick up this fake robbery and try to put the blame on foreigner... as i know them, they will love to do it. ps: i am not fat or australian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
