Pattaya Police hunt for Middle-Eastern Foreign Exchange Cheat

Thought you had to show your passport these days to change money? must admit a while since i used a booth

You are correct, or a copy is sometimes required. You would think more so for large amounts like this which is not really normal.

Whenever I swap foreign currency (albeit smallish amounts) for THB (at Super Rich International), they never ask for my passport, but when I want to buy foreign currency, they always ask for my passport. However, considering this is a substantial amount, a check of the passport should have been requested.
