Lucius verus Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Why would you go to meet a stranger at a buddha temple to sell or buy a stupid phone??? Ever heard of shopping malls? Thailand is truly the hub of Darwin people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever heard of shopping malls? Thailand is truly the hub of Darwin people. In my opinion, near the temple would be an ideal place to pass fake money for the phone - no CCTV cameras and a much quieter location than a busy shopping mall.

Gumballl Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 At least the woman (seller) is still alive. In the US, a father and son were robbed of a second-hand Xbox they wanted to sell; and the son was shot (I can't recall if killed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
