German Actor Accused Of Luring Women Into Iphone Scam

[limbo]

Love it, for all the guys that paid for the 'sick buffalo' or 'the brother with the motorbike accident', reverse psychology in effect!

What girl would ever suspect her nice, farang boyfriend?

A German man was arrested yesterday in Bangkok’s Prawet district after several women went to the police for being lured into his cheap iPhone deal.

Bogdan Gerik, 40, reportedly confessed to police that he took his victims’ hearts and their money, but it was all a scam.

Several women told the police they got to know Bogdan through dating sites. Smitten and having already hopped in bed with the man, they trusted him enough to transfer thousands of baht as Bogdan claimed he could get them iPhones from Germany at a much lower price.

But after taking their money, he never did.

We’re not sure how many women or how many iPhones were involved, but somehow nearly THB3 million was transferred to his bank account.

According to the investigation, Bogdan arrived Thailand 14 years ago and has been living in the kingdom illegally while working as an extra. One of his recent jobs was for Hong Hoon, the popular horror film which recently launched theaters, Khaosod reported.

Hi,

 

The difference is of course that the farang gets arrested (and rightfully so), while all the Thai girls get away with it.

 

Sanuk!

Well here he is. Anyway, I am not German!

Never heard of a guy by this name. But this could spell a problem for the industry.

 

We are only now starting to recover from 8 months of civil unrest. Jobs finally returning. But it seems most people have left Thailand ......... Had 30 people selected to go to a casting, only 4 were here :/
