snoop1130 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Video: Thai man pulls out gun when the bank comes to repossess the car A video being widely shared on Facebook shows a Thai man pull out a gun when three bank debt collectors come to repossess a car. The bare chested man gets in the white car and drives off leaving the scared collectors in the street of his housing estate. The footage was posted by the collectors on the "Yaak Dang Diaw Jat Hai" (We'll make you famous) page. They stated that they came to claim the car after the person on the hire purchase agreement - a woman - had failed to pay any of the first 24 instalments of a 48 month deal. They suspected that the man was a relative or someone known to the woman. They appealed to netizens to try to find the man and the car while people online condemned the man and suggested the debt collectors go to the police, reported Sanook.

lemonjelly Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) I can feel a "Thai guy uses sister's/gf's name and credit rating to buy car and doesn't pay the instalments" story starting to take form. Edited May 8, 2017 by lemonjelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterwhisper Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 If the hire-purchaser had been a foreigner, they would've come running and taken the car after 2 months of non-paid installments. Why did they wait 24 months (2 years!) when it's a local? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksidedog Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Whatever, the fella isn't too bright. Hasn't paid for the car for 2 years, they want to take it, so accept and let it go. But no! Boy wonder pulls out a gun, he undoubtedly doesn't have a license for, threatens people with it and then, effectively steals the car! But at least, he will have lots of time to reflect on the stupidity of his feeble brain, cos that is 5 years minimum. One of the saddest tales of stupidity I have ever heard of.

Definitely a sandwich or two short of a picnic to do something that retarded. Like it's not going to come back on you, when they pretty much know who you are, and where you live?

otherstuff1957 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Back when my wife & I were shopping for a house/land we looked at a few bank repos. ALL of them had owners still living in them! When I asked the bank officer when they would be evicting the previous owner they just looked at me like I was crazy and told me that that would be the responsibility of the new owner! Back to the original topic - Anybody who had done any repo work knows that being shot at by the former owner is always a real possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The credit card industry, infamous for making up their own rules, says that a credit card deadbeat is someone who pays their credit card balances in full and on time each month. Signed Deadbeat.
