Tuktuk robbery scam caught on video.

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Tuktuk robbery scam caught on video.

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

A video going viral on social media over the last week is being used as a warning to tourists and ex-pats alike.

The clip, taken and posted by a Hong Kong tourist, shows him travelling on one of Bangkok’s world famous transport systems, the Tuk Tuk. On his way to a hotel the film clearly shows the Tuk Tuk driver making some sort of hand signal to a following motorcyclist, who then pulls up along side and steals a bag with 13,000 baht, 1000 HK Dollars, a passport and some credit cards.

The theft, which happened on June 30, has been watched by nearly two-million people since it was posted on the Facebook GOtrip page.

The police have not commented although the bike registration plate is easy to see and so an arrest should be a formality...
