Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else.

The Three Surprises of the Black Magic Woman

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Battambang: On April 9 at 5 pm, a woman fortuneteller , identified as Kang Leang called Tang Kim, 37 year old, was arrested for black magic scamming money for 167,000 baht equal $ 5,300 USD, in Oukandal village, Sompovlun District, Battambang. The victim who was scammed is Hoy Nat, 51 years old.

The victim said that she had pain all over her body so she made a consultation with the fortuneteller to check on her condition. Suddenly, the fortuneteller told her that she had a lot of black magic inside her body, and that if she wanted to get rid of it, ( first surprise), she would have to pay a large amount of money to make it go away.

The victim believed her, and she was scared about the black magic so she decided to give the money to the fortuneteller. The first time she put the money for 17,000 baht for praying. Then the fortuneteller told her to give 150,000 more to take all black magic from her body and finish the ceremony.
However, (second surprise), after giving her the money, the victim didn't feel at all better and her body was still painful. So then the victim went to the fortuneteller to ask for the money back.
After that, the fortuneteller wrote her a cheque for 30,000 USD and gave it to the victim to get the money from the bank. But, (third surprise), when the victim got to the bank, the bank teller told her that it was a fake cheque.
So then, the victim filed a complaint against the fortuneteller, who was arrested and taken to the police station, where she was charged with fraud. (Possible fourth surprise.)

Almost as much of a run-around as treatment for cancer overseas.

Almost.

So she stole $5,300 and gave a fake check for $30,000. Lol.

Black magic, lol. I went to the countryside once to visit my (ex) gf's mother. When we arrived there was allot of food prepared for some kind of ritual as the mother supposedly had a bad spirit inside of her. It was good at the time I still smoked herbs as it was a surreal experience to say the least (the mother at times had her eyes closed and was mumbling allot of weird shit) My ex didn't appreciate it when I told her that her mother is probably just plain nuts.

If you want supremely weird/superstitious crap, go to a charismatic church service in the US or any so-called ' civilised' western country.

Khmers are sensible by comparison.

If you really want the full experience, go to a charismatic Khmer church service.
