Spinster Suckers Senior Saps with Sex Scam, Police Say

By Khaosod Eng.

Suspect Pattana Kruengkam, 46, is accused of luring lustful old men into sexual liaisons that consisted only of her stealing their stuff, some of which she is accused of selling at this Chiang Mai gold shop where police said she is seen in this CCTV image.

CHIANG MAI — A 46-year-old woman is accused of devising a particularly effective scheme for robbing men, one they might be too embarrassed to tell anyone about – especially their wives.

Chiang Mai police yesterday arrested Pattana Kruengkam, ending what they said was a serial scam using her “trick as a woman” to lure elderly men on various pretexts – even claiming she was dying and wanted a final fling – and then steal from them.

“The suspect used her trick as a woman to approach victims in many places, such as hospitals and markets,” said Police Col. Weerayuth Prasopchokechai of the Chiang Mai city police. “The suspect would say she was lonely, unmarried and looking for someone to sleep with. After that, she would steal from them. Some victims got locked inside bathrooms. The perpetrator would just grab their belongings and run away.”

During the past year, police said they’ve received at least 11 similar complaints from men between 55 and 70. All said they had been promised a sexual encounter by the suspect, who then stole their money and other items and fled without consummating the original offer.

P.T. Barnum said it best: "There's one born every minute!"

you could not make it up

Tell us something we don't know.

There are Thai woman pulling this kind of scam against farangs up and down the country every single day.

And managing to make off with a lot more than a few gold chains and amulets.

Clearly the editors at Khaosod don't read Thai Visa forum.

55-70 is NOT old. 100 is old, anything under that is young or middle age

Pink P.

In Pattaya it is not just women... big trick of the third gender too

But that's about Chiang Mai now. Unbelievable grandpa sin city ....lustful old man....

So at what beach do the kathoeys hang out here?

Will she have to refund the sap though?

55-70 is NOT old. 100 is old, anything under that is young or middle age

I am not sure if I want to live to 100.

That would mean that I would be married to an OLD woman of 79 and my second son here in Thailand would be 41, my son in the UK would be 66 and my grandchildren would be 33 and 29.

Add to that almost everyone else I know would be dead.

What a terrifying thought.

The good news is that I would be making loadsamoney from my pensions.

All said they had been promised a sexual encounter by the suspect, who then stole their money and other items and fled without consummating the original offer.

Of all the dirty tricks, the least she could have done is give them a happy ending.

The old guys weren't fast enough to chase after her

Welcome to Thailand. Land of smiles and other things.

Yeah, considering all the circumstances, it is not fair to the lustful old men. Shame on you, old woman! 8-)

11 complaints from the 55-70 age group is not that many.

Maybe the suspect has now focused her efforts on the below 55 and above 70 age groups because she don't want to accused of age discrimination and those age groups just haven't had a chance to file complaints yet.

This story if fake.......there is NO WAY tourists and expats in Thailand are not the smartest of the smart.

I've met many of them at the bar around noon. We usually just hang out for about 12 hours.

i've met a guy who can drink 100 beers in 10 hours.....i bet Einstein couldn't do that!!!!

Her only crime is her age.

If she was between 18 - 28 it would have been consenting adults. [emoji12]

Gee at 77 I guess I missed the cut.

I guess TAT would not say she is a scammer only an opportunist, collecting for a good cause. Maybe a security check.

Bathroom locks on the outside?

Lessons learned by languid losers.

TAT should use this story in their next add...."Thailand the HUB of scams"

Stay tuned for Khaosod's expose on the female mafia boss named Pa Hoy operating an illegal crustacean smuggling enterprise in Prachuap Kiri Khan worth an estimated THB 200000000 a year.

" She Sells Seashells On The Seashore"

and the heartwrenching report on the plight of 2nd generation imported de-feathered game bird family businesses struggling to survive without government support

" I'm Not A Pheasant Plucker..."

really, what a silly woman...

Who says it's farang she's been scamming? I actually get the impression that it was all Thai men.

Tourists?

I got the impression this lady was ripping of Thais?

I'll read the article again.

Bathroom locks on the outside?

I came across them in Pattaya a while ago. Cannot remember where though. Visited more than a few "small" hotels over the years

OMG, Dear God, only this ...

I am almost sorry she got caught.

Who says it's farang she's been scamming? I actually get the impression that it was all Thai men.

I got the impression she scammed older men, there was no mention of whether these willing partners were Thai or foreign.

Chiang Mai has a plentiful supply of sexy senior farangs as well as Thai men.
