PATTAYA POLICE ARREST 2 ROMANIAN CREDIT CARD FRAUDSTERS

Two Romanian citizens have been arrested at a popular hotel in Pattaya in relation to a credit card skimming and duplication scam recently.

Pattaya, 5th of November 2009 (PDN): Allegedly two Romanian born Tourists have been arrested in Pattaya at the "DC Hill Hotel" whilst in possession of two stolen ATM cards and some high tech skimming equipment, believed to have been used to read credit and bank account numbers from ATM’s across Pattaya for use in a card duplication scam.

Immigration Police Commissioner, Lieutenant General Chatchawal Suksomchit told a packed press conference that the two Romanian men a, Lazar Traian Daniel, 40 and Constantine George Marin, 34, were arrested at the "DC Hill Hotel" in Pattaya recently.

The two men were arrested following complaints by Kasikorn Bank and Bangkok Bank that 2 Caucasian foreigners had been using forged debit and credit cards to withdraw cash and buy goods around the Pattaya City area within the last three months. It is believed that with continued persistent efforts of co-operation between the banks of Thailand, the police and the general public we will eventually see an end to this continuing problem of credit card theft in Pattaya.

Like I said... the smart ones didn't get caught, that's all. They are long gone running their ATM scam in another country.

Send back the romanians in their country. Eastern europeans are just a pain in the a** everywhere they migrate.

Sdigit · 06-11-2009, 04:35 AM

^I wouldn't tar all east Europeans with that brush, Romanians however see crime as a legitimate profession and export it everywhere they go

In my UK city the Romanian women walked around the center all day with babies begging for cash. They had notes written in English that they handed you, they even went door to door in residential areas. What did the Police do?- 'ask' they to leave town, ha ha.

take their notes written in English and throw them in the rubbish bin where they kin belong.
