June 21, 201411 yr And the boys standing around him? Boyfriends of some of his scam-victims? Police of course.
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post I expect they made a connection with him after the photo opp. Serbs him right!
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post Allready read yesterday ! I meet many of those aliens within 19 year here, one time a German want sale me also iPhones copy's from china on the beach , also ask me to buy one! I told him no brother I know that this a copy, the aswer was you know , but Thais don't know most of them easy believers ! How he can cheat so a long time I don't know how it works! He got a great live here living like a god and after 3 years in the Bangkok Hilton he came back and do the same way..
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post It's usually the other way around. Epic ! Ah yes, but with arrests? lol Maybe not.......
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post If true, this guy must be devoid of all intelligence. To think that he could over-stay 14 years is lunacy, but at the same time scamming girls out of there money. Just how long did he think he would get away with it - filing a complaint to the police is easy for all to do. Unless, of course, up until recently he enjoyed some 'protection'. Perhaps the protector is no longer in office?
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post I can imagine, many farangs being happy, after what they have suffered from Thai Ladies scammers. Saying that, I condemn this Serbian's, or German's actions.
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post "Bogdan Rejic" isn't a German name. It is not a real German. Here we go again. It's probably a Serbian name, but let's just imagine his Serbian (Yugoslav) father may have moved to Germany after WWar II and met a nice little blond German fraulein and married her and little Bogdan was born in Munich. I would say that makes him a German wouldn't you? Germany has long been a haven for immigrants. <<<< Off topic deflection comments removed >>>>
June 21, 201411 yr From the article: Bogdan, Bogdaan Rejik, Rejic A quality Thai news article. Passport copy please
June 21, 201411 yr Fourteen years overstay!!!!!!!!!!! No prob... 20,000 B. Mind you.. I don't think he'll be sent back to Germany.... until he's served some time in the slammer.
June 21, 201411 yr "The women began dating Mr. Rejik and some of them even married him" Of course they did. Some of these translations are too funny.
June 21, 201411 yr Fourteen years overstay!!!!!!!!!!! And appearing in a recently produced Thai horror movie. What a joke.
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post "The women began dating Mr. Rejik and some of them even married him..." Of course they married him for "love" with no expectations of increasing their wealth. It looks like the scammers got scammed. Only difference is, had it been the other way around, no arrests would have been made and he would be crying in his overpriced drinks provided by the next bar girl he falls for.
June 21, 201411 yr "Bogdan Rejic" isn't a German name. It is not a real German. Sigh.......there are lots of born and bred Germans with Slavic sounding names. Or Dutch or French or Turkish names. Chances are the bloke only speaks German, plus broken English and broken Thai. As a previous poster suggested, his father might have emigrated to Germany before he was born, or maybe even his grandfather.
June 21, 201411 yr "Bogdan Rejic" isn't a German name. It is not a real German. If he were a sports star, there would be no complain.
June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post "Bogdan Rejic" isn't a German name. It is not a real German. Roma? Fits with his scamming ways.
June 21, 201411 yr His latest appearance was in the horror film "Hong Hoon" He looks pale as a ghost in the OP.

June 21, 201411 yr Popular Post "Bogdan Rejic" isn't a German name. It is not a real German. The days when all Germans were called Fritz, Heinrich and Ludwig have long gone. In 2013 the most popular baby's name in Germany was Ben. Herr H would not be amused.

I would say that makes him a German wouldn't you? Germany has long been a haven for immigrants. "Barack Obama", is that an American name? Than little Bogdan would be little Klaus Rejic. Actually that is very similar to my heritage. To compare with America is not suitable. An American name would be something like Eagles Eye, Red Feather.....All others are immigrants. European societies are much older. Yugoslavian, Hungarian, Czech, Polish, Russian integrate very well in Europe and after 1 Generation you don't know where they come from anymore. They usually forget about their former language in 1 generation.

June 21, 201411 yr He worked in film during his overstay....so the entertainment industry also hires illegal aliens? Not one word about that and there will not be one word about that..... It's another case where there is obvious elitism and a flouting of the law by the very same people who supported Suthep (the movies this con artist made are solid proof after all). There is corruption, systemic and endemic, at every level of employed and elected Thai government, and in every department.
