Taffyfromflint Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 It amazes me how reliant Thai people are of "superstition" e.g. spending stacks on "lucky number" sim cards, changing car number plates because the numbers aren't lucky. This is just another expamle of a worm convincing Thais that he can foretell the further and supposedly bring luck and good fortune. I guess not unlike "faring" around the globe heaping money on dating sites only to find their "love is lost" along with their savings. Dump him in the sewer I say.

This guy must be really good to convince people of is "skills". "Come on, If anyone is stupid enough to pay millions for those services ..." Maybe that's why he came here. If he read all the posts on TV by or about those farang who lost their money when they were easily outwitted and convinced they had found "true love" in paradise, he probably thought this would be the mother lode for gullible targets.

Ulic Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 First I read it was a protection racket not I read it was an ESP scam. They have taro card reading phone scams in the USA. Not against the law there. I am left scratching my head. Maybe something lost in translation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
