konying Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Sorry master. No i did not learn in a bar nor uneducated woman Roo. No need to apologize, just wise not to come on the board preaching or i should say pretending and then getting it wrong. I am certain you did not learn it at school nor from a book , so has to be either the bar or the "good girl" Or you you can hardly count to 5 and most likely get that wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaPiPuPePo Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I've known several Thai women on the DATE IN ASIA dating website who have had the "Package Scam" pulled on them. It is a very professionally done scam. A fellow will initiate contact and over time get more and more ardent, poring his heart out about all the pain caused by women who have misused his good heart. The recipient is clearly the one girl who can rescue him from his life of loneliness. At this point it is interesting to note that these letters are always just about him...nothing in them except the name on the heading refers in any personal way to the recipient...This is because he is sending the same letter to hundreds of women at the same time. There are usually also sporadic phone calls...always him calling her because he works on an oil platform in the North Sea. Eventually he writes he is coming to Thailand to meet and hopefully marry her. He will write or call and say that he is sending a package by a professional air courier company used only by the oil companies...very secure so he will be sending cash as well as some of his late mothers jewelry and some new I-phones. He includes a website and emails her a very authentic looking airbill complete with a website and functioning tracking number: of course all the targets are getting the same tracking number so easy to set up a phony site but I will say, it looked very authentic...a lot of work went into it. She will see the package go from UK to Germany to Dubai looking very normal. Then she will get a panicked call: The cargo plane was diverted to Malaysia because of mechanical problems and customs there opened the package and are demanding $2000 +- to release it. "Please, Sweetheart...I am in transit to Thailand and can not access my money!! Please send $ 2000 to this account so they will release the package...I will pay you back triple!!. One friend was literally on her way to the bank when I ran into her...it took her a long time to accept she was being scammed. A lot of girls do fall for it. So, as was pointed out, similar to many internet scams, asking for money in exchange for a bigger payoff. Emotions pay a part but so does greed on the part of the scammed. The women aren't just sending the money to these guys to help them out with rent or something (like that would ever happen!) but to get money, iPhones (bait 'o' the decade), and so on.

Mister Fixit Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Ever heard the words (Loo mak mai dee ?) Because the majority of dodgy Thai women will avoid you. Learn Thai !!! 99.999 percent of foreigners can,t count to five in Thai. No wonder they get taken advantage of. I wonder where you learned your Thai, which bar or an uneducated woman? Loo???? It is Roo รู้ Rorua, not Lo Ling Well said. You can obviously count to more than five. I wonder if Jungle Jim can ...? Only low class or (most often) lazy Thais use 'L' instead of 'R' - puut lor ling, mai raw rua. (it isn't Rorua) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernjohn Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Is this some kind of parallel world or what? Is this page satire? Pretty sure it`s the other way round 99.9% of the time! Yes, but it does happen............ http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/738325-should-i-help-on-this-scam/ Can't help wondering why so many posters are in denial of it. Enough to make one wonder if they might have some first hand experience in it and don't want the public to know it happens. Just a thought. I am being open minded on it.

Popular Post morpho Posted October 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2014 And if I officially complained to DSI about the time I was "suckered" (yes, I admit upfront I was stupid in the whole affair), I bet absolutely nothing would be done about it. Thai women scamming foreigners is just part of Thai culture, but heaven-forbid that a foreigner can get away with scamming a Thai woman! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technologybytes Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I'm actually shocked by the attitudes of so many people on here. Many of these women are genuine victims of crime, it's shocking that because they are Thai women some people think they are less of a victim.

smotherb Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 It's a well-known fact that scamming is a form of employment protected by the labour office in Thailand. Foreigners cannot get a work permit to do that. But seriously, It's pretty clear that the Thai women who are giving foreigners money over the internet aren't doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. They expect an unrealistic rate of return on it, probably in the form of a rich foreign husband. Perhaps the DSI should focus on teaching them not to be so stupid and greedy. Yes, it does seem logical to have to send money to a rich farang. And, it's almost that time of year when Santa will be coming; have you been good?

Popular Post KIWIBATCH Posted October 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2014 Tell the DSI to get off their bums and get down to the local internet cafe to watch Thai girls running a multi screen scam conversation with multi foreigners.....along the lines of "you are my one and only bf"...."the buffalo is sick plse send money"......."No I have not been to the beer bar I am simply just sitting at home waiting for you to return to Lieland Thaiiland darleen" I know of one university student receiving 4 seperate bank deposits a month from foreigners overseas who have "visited" her in the past. She lives in a luxurious apartment...drives a late model car..... and is out shagging at the local beerbar 3 nights a week on top of the money pouring in each month from "her only number 1 boyfriend...or should that be boyfriends....hahaha So who is the scammer here??? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
