ezzra Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 50,000 baht stolen from a lowly food vendor,, Hummmm.. 50,000? Thai tax department please note, as only about 2 million people pay taxes in this country, while the rest are calming to earn less that the required payable tax brackets... in fact I know food vendors in my soi and other places around BKK that earn more than me at time....

Brit_Doggie Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Profit per 1 serving maybe max 5-10 baht these vendors aren't get rich quick kinda people, lucky if they make 1 to 200 baht daily then theres the local mafia payment to the police to equate on the regular visits.

bazza40 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Don't understand how a food vendor could be carrying 50,000 baht in cash to steal. Or perhaps hash cookies are part of his menu on offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterphil Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The trickster returned to the cart and spoke with a friend and co-worker of the couple and persuaded her to hand over the couples money bag and claimed they had asked him to return there for the bag so the pair could purchase more food items to complete the large order. 50K in a money bag, but no phone to call and confirm that the coworker should hand over the cash. What a load of <deleted> and the so called "friend" and coworker should be made to pay back the 50K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew a stick meat vendor that sold about 1,200 pieces a day at 3Bt each. Sold allot of sticky rice too. He worked hard long hours. May have pocketed 3,000Bt after expenses on a good day. The victim here had an unusual amount of cash and somebody knew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
