Notice that they are also members of the Police. I mean, since the healdine states the police caught someone, it would be obvious to conclude that they were police right?

Who honestly cares if these blokes are colonels or leuitenent colonels. All that is apparent is that there are far too many titles banded around in that organisation full stop.

Thais take great pride in their titles.. Even if caught in illegal activities they want their titles! Let them be.....

[tragickingdom]

So because he was travelling to Thailand a lot where they actually love the rubbish he is selling, he could not be a legitimate businessman? The odds are good that he might be a creditcard skimmer, but still the explanation that the police gives makes no sense. If the number of visits would say anything about ones occupation 90% of all Thai Visa Readers would be involved in the scam too.

[MilesofSmiles]

defendants in the skimmer gang who were caught with 328 electronic cards

328!! That's a serious operation.

will investigate how the group of defendants got the information of the victims from other countries.

You buy them online, botnets, ye olde gsm sniffers. It's scary how easy it is for people to get this sort of info.

[ikbenhet]

Strange way to hide. Renting a room in a hotel.

But then again, TiT. One never knows..

Andrey: "Now, if you guys would just loosen these handcuffs a bit and give me my airline tickets back,
I'd be happy to show you how it's done. How does a 10 percent cut sound?"

[bangkapi]

Clearly innocent!

Nobody is pointing at him!!

[Bakseeda]

very good job from the ECCD ..... what will happen with the Thai policeman involved ?

He was really an undercover policeman... working secretly for the BiB.... SO SECRETLY NO-ONE ELSE KNEW...!

[TheNativeSon]

The Thai police had better call in the FBI, if they intend to succeed. Guaranteed, Mr. Andry will tell them absolutely NOTHING!

[Barabbas]

It's just a treat to see the name of the man spelt in 4 different ways all in jist 1 small piece of text "Who da big boss eez" should huv sounded more authentic, holy momma Mary, another specimen of brilliant journalism from Pattaya Daily Dudducks

[LUSHGOAT]

Good job now execute them all that will stop the skimmers

[feest monty]

i guess the only way to get your money back is to sue microsoft for selling defective software claiming that it is secure. perhaps a group action looks like there are more than enough plaintiffs to be able to get it together.

Edited November 22, 2013 by feest monty

[feest monty]

perhaps you could also sue the NSA spy agency for requiring microsoft to put exploitable backdoors into its software.

There maybe a factory of electronics cards in Russia. How clever Russians are. They get richer faster than other businessmen.

[quiuvo]

Don't exaggerate . The punishment should be about 5 years in prison and restitution 555.

[Bagwan]

How many Thai cops does it take to make a statement? Have they nothing better to do? Obviously not.

I'm surprised they dont insist that these arrest photos have tags like on Facebook so you know exactly who is who especially when no-one is pointing....I mean anyone of them could be the guilty party.......well the one caught I mean
