It pays to plan ahead in life. "Scams and Fraud in Thailand - With a Smile," will render the proactive reader forewarned and concomitantly forearmed - in this case with knowledge and a concrete ability to handle and avoid the potential plethora of scams in Thailand - from A to Z!
The book includes large chapters on foreigner-held property theft in the country, how to avoid the rip-offs, criminal expats in the Kingdom and nefarious Thai women-gone-bad - chewing up hundreds of hapless farang (foreigners) men every year. These professional honey-traps envelop their at-risk foreign hosts like a parasitic passion-fruit vine, suck them bone-dry and spit them out with relish.
The bottom line is, a veritable plethora of scams targeting tourists (and Thais) have become far too commonplace in Thailand. Literally thousands of foreigners become financial victims in (and out of) "The Land of Smiles," often from other expats associated with Boiler Room activity in the Kingdom.
When scammed substantially, the term "Amazing Thailand" becomes an oxymoron for scores of swindled victims. Many foreigners lose their pensions and life-savings as a result of expat Boiler Room tactics - whose tentacles spread clear across the globe. This 15 minute youtube video sums up Thai Boiler Room operations in the country nicely: youtube.com/watch?v=FbPIAFrzmMU
