According to his Thai wife?

 

Wouldn't be surprised if she was in on his "suicide" along with the police.

 

People kill for much, much less.

possibly she said the ring leaders in pattaya and police were setting him up... who knows... 

Interesting how at least two of his cars' number plates consist of same digits 1923 and 2319 - is it just coincidence or a sinister code in the Darkest of All Webs?

Cazes learned cyber hacking when he was 14, and just about to be 18 he found bypass routes to make money from dark-nets. He is frankly a brilliant guy, should have been recruited by NSA as early possible. These are guys make Snowden type persons for FBI and NSA who can crack the web puzzles. He has a IQ score of 148. Unfortunately life ended in Thai jails using towels, after they unearthed 700 million baht, and crypto currency worth USD 21 million.

 

He was about to be extradite to US for further investigation and committed suicide.

 

I have no comments, but why many secret agents those who amassed wealth(After Police raid and recovery of cash and wealth) have been committed suicide with towels once they are arrested in Thailand ?

This is a million dollar question ??? 

 

But world has lost a brilliant young man, who can be a highly valuable person for intelligence.

Yes, big money floating around here, I know what my first thoughts are...

This guy may have been smart but no common sense, they will never learn do not show extreme wealth as a farang it will set off the alarm bells. Why take a bribe when some cop can have it all. 

The funny thing about his bust he left his actual e-mail address on the darkweb site

Several houses, handling/selling a lot of forbidden stuffs from within Thailand on the Dark-web, 4 high speed cars...

 

He was probably well connected...

 

Until they suicide dis-connected him.

 

Sharing the spoils for sure...

Lesson no 1) don't show off your wealth, should it be clean or dirty assets..

 

Lesson no 2) handle your money issues by yourself and last of all, never get your wife/gf/sexpartner involved or to have access to your accounts

 

Lesson no 3) fully respect the law and avoid as much as possible to get involved with the local boys in brown, as their bark could be worse then a bite

 

Lesson no 4) never put in too much money in a Thai Bank...just the strict minimum for current expenses...

 

Lesson no 5) enjoy the penang curries, the chesty hotties looking to service your willy, the booze, the shopping, the Bangkok Skytrain, the climate, the malls...

 

Lesson no 6) make it clear in a will back home and in Thailand just in case you "fall" from the 10th floor of a condo or get "drowned" in the lovely pool by the villa, all you assets go to a family member back home and nobody else...and make sure she is aware of this!!

 

Lesson no 7) use condoms, have fun and enjoy...

  I read a lot recently about this darknet websites selling drugs, weapons and other stuff. The first one was named Silk Road and existed 2 and a half years from 2010 till 2013. Its founder was arrested in USA and sentenced to life in prison without a possibility of parole. This fact explains a lot about this Cazes guy's decision to hang himself. He knew for sure what's ahead of him. And he did not quit the business in time (his website also existed 2 and a half year). That was his biggest mistake.  By the way, the owners of several other sites did quit in time with millions and millions in their pockets. Those ones can be considered really smart not this poor young guy with his childish love to big houses and sport cars.

People make mistakes in life, regardless you are brilliant or not.

 

He was not given right opportunity. If he joined Google/Amazon/Microsoft, he would have been millionaire too with decent life. But the he chose the wrong life.

He was given plenty of opportunity, the first one was quit while ahead and unknown.
