Popular Post Suradit69 Posted April 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2015 A 20,000 Baht Rolex watch? - at that price that's definitely a fake! In another report the wording was slightly different ...two fake Turkish passports, a Rolex watch, 20,000 baht cash and other stolen valuables worth more than 1 million baht. Someone didn't do a good job transcribing (aka "lifting") the information from an earlier source. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lvr181 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 The Koh Samui police didn't bother checking within the RTP (Bangkok/Pattaya/Phuket) as well? Suggests some dysfunction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Suradit69 Posted April 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2015 I hope the ones that sold them the fake Lolex get arrested as well. No evidence that it was fake. The original report spoke of a Rolex AND Baht 20,000 in cash, NOT a Baht 20,000 Rolex. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
