BANGKOK -- Maesai “Joe” Prapasawat, famous now as the slap-happy Lambo Taxi Man, filed a police report yesterday against a web forum where someone accused him of embezzlement.

Joe, who sells car fuel conversion kits, traveled to the Computer Crime Suppression Division in Chaeng Wattana yesterday to file a defamation complaint against the Dek-D online forum for accusing him of embezzling money from Napat Yanyon, another auto company he had traded with in the past.

"I didn't embezzle. I just did my business with a little technique. Did I conceal the costs [from my customers]? I did. But I didn't embezzle anyone’s money,” Joe told Sanook. [read more...]

I just did my business with a little technique, Did I conceal the costs, yes I did.

A lot of on artists, scammers and embezzlers have techniques and conceal things.

DEK- D seems to be a Thai site so he has probably got a very good chance of taking them for everything.

Nothing screams tacky more than

a young Thai man and a lambo

A self professed liar stating he is not guilty of embezzlement. I believe him don't you?

[Bluespunk]

"Joe believes there is someone out there trying to discredit him"

Yes, there is.

He's in the mirror.

Take a look.

"I didn't embezzle. I just did my business with a little technique. Did I conceal the costs [from my customers]? I did. But I didn't embezzle anyone’s money,” Joe told Sanook.

Errrrrrr .... a full admission of embezzlement, in Thailand, means he did not embezzle?

Does he not know that embezzlement is itself a concealement of business practices which may or may not result in financial loss to business associates (when it then becomes 'fraud')?

[Strangebrew]

Ok let me get this straight he didn't embezzle money he misrepresented a product he was selling So he is guilty of false advertising? And the technique being he lied to his customers. Making false claims in The US would be a crime but in Thailand if your Thai hiso it is called business as usual?

[JOC]

Never mind the embezzlement!!

He should be charged with spoiling a beautiful car by painting it as Bangkok taxi!!

Agreed! Maybe a slap across the back of the head will get his brain functioning normally.

[Rykbanlor]

All that needs to be said here is that the guy has enough cash to buy a Lambo, ergo he has enough cash to avoid prosecution. Case closed, except maybe a defamation case which he will probably win, cos crime pays, if you spread the proceeds right.

Assuming he has 2 neurons that function and can be rubbed together

He said he rarely uses it. It looked a little out of place parked in the disabled parking lot at the airport too.

Embezzlement and lying about the costs are very different things. Embezzlement is a criminal offense akin to theft, lying about costs can lead to a civil offense.

Why is this forum always so against young people with money?

[LuckyLew]

wonder if he has a meter in the taxi?

just another rich hiso who cannot take a little critisism

Call me a name and I will sue you

[mike324]

Don't know why folks can't read properly, he didn't misrepresent a product, he just sold it at a higher price to another company. That company found out they were overpaying, therefore stop doing business with Joe. Now folks probably from the company are saying Joe embezzled money from them. How do you embezzle money from a company you sell stuff to only? Correct me if I'm wrong, that is my interpretation.

[monkey4u]

The main questions are

1 Does the taxi have a meter

2 Does he use it

3 Does he refuse fares

Joe says he didn't, they say he did.

The other dishonest practices he admits to may just be another of his business strategies..

Must be another Thailand university business graduate....terms can be adjusted to suit one business technique

[Benmart]

I thought it meant Jackie Lambo, the lesbo poitico from down under, not a tacky Italio pedalo ...

Crude at best.

[robhufton]

Sue the internet?

[aldo7]

Not easy to drive a Lambo with his kind of shoes !

[keestha]

Sue the internet?

My thought. You might as well sue God.

(Sorry Christian readers, no offence intended).

[doremifasol]

The Lamb has spoken

[maidee]

sue the internet, slow day ? the articles get better & better here ... before there was like 10-15 news items per day

now you get 3 URGENT UPDATES with 30 links

[ronthai]

Another spoiled brat

[MaiChai]

I read the story and he did not tell his customer the wholesale price he was paying for his supplies? Nothing wrong with that?

[tomacht8]

What a nice pu@sy trap taxi car.
Everytime I see these beautiful cars,
i must think about the 500 disappeared luxury cars from the Customs Warehouse .
Did the Customs Department already recovered some of these missing luxury cars?

[ldiablo]

Joe, you are a self admitted liar, so you have done a great job of discrediting yourself all on your own.
