Thai arrested for falsifying robbery complaint to deceive foreign partner

By The Nation

 

A Thai man was arrested by Pattaya police on Monday on a charge of falsifying a robbery complaint so that he could deceive his gay foreign partner into wiring him some money.

 

Pattaya police chief Pol Colonel Apichai Krobphet said Noppakao Tor-on, 27, had been taken into custody after they verified that his complaint was not genuine.

 

On August 17, Noppakao filed a complaint with the Pattaya police that his bag had been snatched down a soi near Tuek Com shopping centre.

 

He claimed to have lost Bt20,000, two ATM cards and several documents in the alleged incident.

 

Pattaya police carried out an investigation promptly for fear that news of such a robbery could damage tourism in the seaside city, but they were able to establish that no such theft had taken place.

 

Noppakao was subsequently summoned for questioning, during which he confessed to having made up the story in order to get a complaint receipt so that he could ask for money from his foreign partner, which he then used to pay off his debt, Apichai said.

When did foreign suckers start asking to see police reports?  

 

Gotta admire the guy for having his bases covered, but he'd have probably gotten the money (or not) without the police report, or with a 50 baht Khao San Road police report.  How would a foreign lover know the difference?

Perhaps we should now be asking for verification from the vet when the money is needed for a sick buffalo

Kudos to the foreign friend if he asked for a little proof before sending money.

And why not .. In fact given the devout religiousness they all seem to partake of here why not turn the tables and say any future claims for disaster assistance will have to be vetted by our Almighty .. 50bt .! for a dodgy cop report 50bt .! I have not known a fed here use his position to pecuniary advantage for less than 500 .. And suckers is a good choice of word in this place but I thought it worked the other way around to how you have phrased it ..

That appears to be all they worry about nowadays !

 

At the very least, as  opposed to being recognised as deceitful and untrustworthy by an increasingly connected and aware world.

 

 

Stupid is as stupid does, until the Darwin effect brings it, like all things, to an end.
