rooster59 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hunt on for serial bigamist preying on gullible Thai men Image: Sanook A Thai woman has left a string of angry grooms in her wake after making off with four separate dowries in the past month. The serial bigamist came to light after the men compared notes on Facebook and realized they had all been ripped off by the same "sweet talking" Thai woman. Losses are thought to be many 100,000s of baht in cash and gold. One of the grooms who was conned spoke to Sanook saying that he had met the woman on Facebook towards the end of last year after she introduced herself. After chatting online for months they met in April and soon decided to marry. Wichit said the woman was not beautiful but spoke very well, was easy to get along with and met with the approval of all his relatives too. An initial request for 400,000 baht in cash for the dowry and about 80,000 baht in gold was bargained down to 200,000 in cash. But the woman would not budge on the gold meaning Wichit had to sell his car to raise the money to satisfy her demands. They married at what she claimed was her house though there were only seven relatives from her side of the family. She was in cahoots with these people, it appears and didn't even own the house. When Wichit told his story online others came forward and the extent of the con became apparent. Pathum Thani police were about to charge her at one point but she managed to flee before she could be arrested. Now the grooms are trying to track her and her accomplices down and get their money back.

I was wondering where my g/f kept coming up with all that money and gold all the time ! Here I thought she was making good tips at the restaurant !

trainman34014 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 They rip off their own in the same way they rip off Farang. No scruples apply here when it comes to money and the fastest way to make it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterwhisper Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 So there we have a female “bigamist” -- although 4 men were allegedly conned and she probably rather should be called a “quadruplamist”. And what’s the big ruckus anyway...? Ah, I see, money is involved. That’s why! Otherwise the case wouldn’t even have made the newspapers. To be honest: I’d rather see her make off with a few 100,000 baht in dowry than any of these men eventually making off and abandoning their children and wife altogether, as seems to be normal everyday practice among Thai males. I am also wondering how many of these hopeful grooms were perhaps already married and/or maintained several "mia nois" or "kiks" on the side. And as a final note: If Thais only were as laborious, creative and innovative in business and R&D as they are in devising an endless stream of sophisticated scams to rake in money for nothing and screwing each other over left and right, this country could have well become First World ages ago.

ezzra Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Can anyone tell me what's the different between this woman that fleeces you before you get to marry her and the women that takes you to the cleaners after and while being married to you and pretend to ' lobe you ' ?....

Moti24 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I presume the marriages were consumated before the dowries were paid. That just makes her one expensive hooker! Nothing new here, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muggi1968 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Did she actually do anything that is wrong in law ? I guess she could not have 4 wedding certificates and only had the buddist ceremony ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prakhonchai nick Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Wedding certificates.? I doubt any of the "weddings" were registered. Its not a thing many Thai people do. They go for the show. wedding day, count the dowry money, oohs and aahs, and thats it! Utter crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 4 hours ago, keith101 said: Why not show her face so people can know and warn others Too sensible. Remember, this is Thailand where Wanted posters (if there are any) are blacked out to avoid accusations of defamation. Thais do not feel the need to operate in a way that the rest of the world would consider normal common sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
