webfact Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Police warn of scams using NCPO name BANGKOK, 7 August 2014 (NNT) - The Royal Thai Police has recently received reports of scammers using the National Council for Peace and Order’s name to camouflage their attempts to steal money. Police said members of the public have been exposed to scams which involve the use of the administration’s name to demand money or to claim benefits. The scam is considered a severe fraud whose penalties include a jail sentence. The Royal Thai Police assured the public that the NCPO’s operation is transparent and free of corruption and urged them not to fall for the scheme. Police are offering a reward worth 100,000 baht for information which can lead to their arrest of scammers. Members of the public can contact the 191 and 1599 police hotlines around the clock to provide information. [nnt]2014-08-07[/nnt] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dah fahrang Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Would be easier if the police told the public what kind of scam's were involved.... Naaaah. It's much nicer for the propagandists to throw up a blanket scaremongering 'scam' by saying t"here are scams". Then come up smelling of roses when the gullible read and believe the so-called scams are being cracked by the hard working, ever-dedicated and scrupulously clean Royal Thai Police.
