"I AM 6000 baht short..." - December 27, 2007 This oddly grim and slightly too old grifter is pulling a traditional scam that allegedly is quite profitable. The photo was taken outside of MBK. His sign reads: I am 6000 baht short to go back home HOLLAND. Can you help me? Then it lists suggestions for donations: 20, 50, 100, 500 , 1000 baht, etc. A thread on this photo is here. |
