I've been here full time for 20 years. Like many I have suffered scams; some minor. I hope to learn from my mistakes by never revisiting the bar/city/lady again. If all potential customers did the same, the offenders would be starved of opportunities.
Posting negative reviews in Thailand can get you jailed. Most Thai businesses have no idea of creating customer loyalty or a good reputation. Criticism can get you sued. Trip Advisor has a statutory warning about it.
I have done just that for 10 years after taking an airport taxi after being ushered there by an airport official. Despite offering the female driver a printed Google map of my hotel's location, she drove about for 500 baht's worth before finding it. The return journey (in the hotel manager's car) took UNDER two minutes.
Scam City.
I always look for this phrase when the local police successfully uncover crime. (Six lines into the article.) It NEVER says 'as a result of good detective work/police enquiries'.
If she would only include RTP in this venture, they might spot the hundred daily fires; the polluting, ill-maintained, diesel vehicles chugging past the police station every hour.
