paul955 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Razor, farang means anyone not a Thai. I think it means any non thai with a pale / white face as opposed to 'farang dam' which is a black farang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerbalEd Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Odd that the story says they took 100k and then wired it to belarus by western union. If you ever tried wiring 100K OUT of Thailand you would understand why this is hard to believe. Did it ever occur to you that maybe they sent multiple wires?

Bigfarang1948 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 OH ... so Belarusians are farangs. Ok it's clear now. What is so strange about that? If you aren't Thai, then you MUST be a FARANG, or am I missing your snide point?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc46 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Let's see if I understand this, 8 ATM cards in toliets from Belarussians citizens who threw their cards in a toliet at the airport while on holiday here? Then these 2 guys scam 1 million baht in Bangkok and set free? Now, they scam 100,000 baht and only now go to jail. So, in Thailand you must commit 2 crimes before going to jail correct? No ,,,,,they payed for the first one,But they did not have enough dough for the second one ,just luck, and it is all bad 55555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KED Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 An example of what the EU will be in for if Ukraine ever becomes a member . 1, Belarus is NOT the Ukraine. Belarus is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe bordered by Russia to the northeast, Ukraine to the south, Poland to the west, and Lithuania and Latvia to the northwest 2. The actions of 2 people cannot be expanded to include the entire country; otherwise, using your logic every European/American/Australan pedafile would mean that all Europeans/Americans/Australians are pedafiles. Sure, what they did is a crime and they should be prosecuted - but be careful when you make broad (incorrect) assumptions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 What a shock foreign criminals in Thailand. I wonder how many thousands are hiding here. Phuket , Koh Samui, Chiang Mai, Pattaya and other tourist hangouts seem to be their hideouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 The Russian mafia has spread to about every corner of Thailand. I don,t think the Russians in general are very well liked here. Sadly they make us all look bad. Rude rude and rude. These Russians are getting worse than the Nigerian scammers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank James Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 The two men said they found the eight ATM cards in the toilets at Phuket International Airport, each with the PIN number written on the back. They decided to try them see if they worked. That's the funniest thing I've read on here in WEEKS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laislica Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 OH ... so Belarusians are farangs. Ok it's clear now. I am seriously offended! I am a Farang - not a Belarussian It would have been a much better post if it had stated the facts: that Belarussians were behind the scam! When we Brits, Aussies, French, Spanish or even Y%^&, sorry Americans, etc are on the naughty list - it's OK to say that but NOT oK to say Farang. Ferang is like saying Asian! It includes ALL in the group, not just the naughty ones. (Thanks TVF members for letting me have a little rant.....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laislica Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Actually, Farang are only French, the rest are foreigners. Whilst historically correct, language changes over time with popular usage. Example:- Gay used to mean fun but now it is about a relationship with someone of the same sex. If Farang is not protected it will migrate into what? Where are those Tee shirts with a slogan:- Proud to be Farang! (You may say Falang and will be forgiven) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
