A tourist wakes up to find bed and wallet empty

 

PATTAYA: -- An English tourist called Pattaya police for assistance regarding the theft of money from his hotel room recently.

 

He told police that he had been out in Soi Buakow with a few of his friends, celebrating his birthday. They had already been for a nice meal, and had decided to stop off at a local beer bar on the way home.

 

After about an hour in the bar, and a few bottles of beer later, it was home time. The victim had met a girl in the bar that he quite liked, and so, invited her to accompany him back to his room for the night. The lady in question happily obliged.

 

Back in the room, all was well and they both fell asleep with no problems. It was only when the victim woke up the following morning that he found himself to be all alone, with 170,000 Thai Baht less than he should have had. He immediately called police who arrived onto the scene and took several bits of evidence as well as CCTV images in an attempt to catch the thief.

 

Finally, the police have caught up with the thief, and she was arrested and taken down to the police station to be charged accordingly. Unfortunately, although not so surprisingly, the money has disappeared with part of it being used for a brand new nose, as you can see from the pictures.

The dangers of utilizing a hoe (not the gardening variety) 

Speechless.

Having 170'000 Baht obviously easy accessible(?) in the room, being drunk and taking a prostitute to the room.

What can you say?

You're in danger of being accused of victim blaming by some posters, however, I agree 100% with you.

Your probably right, but who leaves that sort of cash around? Stupid or what?

ridiculous amount of cash

insurance scam

I think maybe there was a communication issue here

 

Perhaps the girl thought he said - come to my room and I will pay for a "nose job"

Opportunity makes thieves.

Som nom na!

Thats one expensive head job he wont experience

Silly newbie. Take a bar girl back, but don't leave ANY money or valuables lying around. She came to your place for money, so why wouldn't she take it?

I doubt any insurance would cover that amount of cash unless it was properly secured.

UK insurances will even stipulate the type of safe required depending on the value being covered.

My mom always said: "a fool and his money are soon parted".

 

He paid for it, so he should get to keep it:

 

"Off with her nose" ........and give it to its rightful owner.

 

Seems fair.

was she wearing a tee shirt that said "I'm with stupid"?

 

The girls are quick to check your wallet very time you open it in a bar.

Although he might only have been a customer, it isn't a good advert for 'Colin's Golf Bar'.

One born every minute, just ask the boiler room scammers

Look at the tshirt worn by the 17yr ond victim in the Thai visa article titled

Speechless, but I will try anyway.

Just maybe it was a little bit remarkeble that such an intelligent man would leave his money unattended, and go to sleep with an unknown person.
Just think that sums it all up.

 

On the other hand. If the money is on the table, maybe the girl just thought that it was her pay for spending time together.

How can you come up with that conclusion when the have the Lady-Boy with

the facial surgery.

He should have smelt a rat, but then maybe he can't.

Foreign tourists are very foolish to carry around with them a large amount of money .  I have traveled extensively in other countries , on arrival I go to the airport ATM and draw some money for immediate use , say BT 10,000 in Thailand .

Could "stupid" be the answer that you are looking for ?

Stupid is as stupid does sir......

 

You sleep that side darling and don't touch that Bht170.000 its all i have for a new nose job.     What a <deleted>, serve him right

To paraphrase Stones' Honky Tonk woman "She blew her nose and then she blew my dough".

Maybe thought with new nose couldn't recognize him/her?

Why would any sane person have 170,000 lying around in room? I think I just answered my question.....

I doubt she paid more then 50,000 for that bumpy nose.
