Lite Beer Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 S African caught in Phuket with 72 skimmed ATM cards Suthicha Sirirat Flanked by Maj Gen Krajang Suwannarat (left) and Phuket Deputy Police Commander Col Arun Kaewwatee, Ngcobo meets the press today. PHUKET: Manquba Parker Ngcobo, a 32 year-old South African, was arrested early this morning (June 20) in Patong on ATM-skimming-related charges, after a pile of cloned ATM cards was found in his room at the Horizon Patong Hotel. Investigators from Phuket Provincial Police HQ tracked Ngcobo down to his hotel after receiving a complaint from Siam Commercial Bank officer about the fake ATMs being used at banks in Patong, Kata and Karon from Tuesday until Thursday this week.After tracking hom down to his hotel, police waited until he returned to his room and then knocked on the door. A search of the room quickly turned up 72 cloned cards and a stack of cash.Ngcobo admitted that he had bought the fake cards from friends in South Africa and had withdrawn money from many places in Phuket. All the victims were South African account holders.Pol Maj Gen Krajang Suwannarat, Deputy Commissioner of Police Region 8, currently looking after Phuket, said that usually skimming gangs caught at work in Phuket were from Europe; this was the first time an African had been caught on skimming-related charges.However, he added that he believed that there were other Africans probably engaged in this activity in Phuket.

Travels all way to Thailand to steal from his fellow country men, South African prison vs Thai prison, not much in it probably better off in a Thai prison, hope he ends up there.

smotherb Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I can't help but worry why on earth a police officer would wear a T-shirt with the word Herion printed on it. The shirt says 'Heroin', not 'Herion,' and contrary to another poster's comment, 'Heroin' is not a female hero, 'Heroine' is. However, the answer you may be seeking is that the Thai may not speak English well and simply does not know what that combination of letters means.
