They have a Pacsafe Thailand Facebook page and there is an agent here so you can buy online in Thailand. Amazing what you can find if you use Google. Loctote have one style of bag that frankly looks pretty basic, whereas Pacsafe have an entire range of products for different uses (not sure that they are all available here In Thailand though).

neeray Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Singapore tourists should have known better. I had to replace all personal documents in my home country as a result of an in home theft. I would hate to have to do this in a foreign country. But all the same, sad for the tourists that they must go through this because of that scumbag.

But no, he looks like your regular bar cowboy, the average sugar daddy retired expat with a beer paunch that sits on his high stool for hours sharing the same Thai-bashing stories night after night with his bar friends ... my oh my, if would-be victims become full blown bandits, what is this world coming to ...

timendres Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 What surprises me is that the waiter in the black shirt misses it. He is looking right at the guy as he pulls the purse from the chair.

bamukloy Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 So many times i have seen Thais in the buffet restaurants, they leave bags and valuables at an unsupervised table while all of them wandering around at the same time getting food. I always make a point to stop and watch in case someone lift the stuff but i never seen it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years back I lost an expensive almost new camera from a compartment in a locked filing cabinet in my apartment in Bangkok and the key to the cabinet also missing. I couldn't understand at all how it had happens until months later I bumped into a farang I thought was my best buddy from work with his Thai gf, he had been to my apartment many times. We sat down to have a snack and his gf pulled an expensive camera out of her bag, my camera which I could prove because of a small scuff mark. Questions to the lady indicated it was a gift from bf and also indicated she knew nothing about it's origins. The lady went walking around and I accused the farang of stealing my camera and he admitted it, his excuse was that he wanted to make his gf happy. He insisted he would reimburse me in several payments over the next few months. Never got one payment, end of friendship. And I became much more vigilant about my property. Yep I knew a couple like that, but they today are still getting away with it today. It helps when your family are police and the attorney at a BK Court is your best friend.

JHolmesJr Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Its a bit sad but I daresay the singaporeans might be complicit in this crime. you see, singapore is so safe that you can actually leave your bag at an outdoor cafe table with your mobile on the table and go for a dump…and when you return there it will be. Creates a false sense of security which they find hard to deactivate once they go overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point that people either are to trusting, dont take due care, or just spend most of their time in la-la land. Especially Thais when theres the distraction of food. And then this is what happens as the smart thiefs know when to strike And it happen to every nationality just chance and opportunity this case was with farangs. I do admit tho, i do take A LOT more care than when i am at the tourist area or the place with many farang. Never have worry to much when in country or suburbia Thailand but still keep on guard.

Why laying any temptation in front of any would be thief? off topic also but your comment remind me of an ex many years ago.. She was to get work done on her car, so im taking the small change out of the console and anything else i see before she goes. She saw me doing that and blew me up saying 'you think all Thais are thiefs' and ranted on very angrly about farangs think all Thais bad. Then some time later she is looking everywhere for an MP3 player (at those times was quite expensive) when finally she realise she left it in the glove box of the car. Mechanic say they never saw it and she never found it again.lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
