Tuktuk Drugs Scam Warning Reported on FB

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. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Funny how white women are so blindly naive just because the men here are exotic and brown. I'm sure she'd let taxi drivers into her house back home...
Please read the OP before commenting. This is to do with her boyfriend. It is not clear whether she was even present when this happened.There are a few strange things about her post, but AFAIK none of them are to do with your sexual fantasies.

I am not sure why she is posting this now, 6 months after the "fake bust" allegedly occurred. There is a FB page in her name but she doesn't mention this, however I'm not a FBer so not sure if this is really odd or not. The FB page also says that she is married.
Anyway, she says :
If you don't want to end like my boyfriend, who is now almost 6 month in prison, his hearing starts tomorrow and he can get up to 5 years...
So there may be something somewhere in the Khmer news about a barang busted for drugs if he is on trial this week.
Update: The OP FB poster is posting on FB from Sihanoukville at the moment, so it would also be interesting to find out if this tuktuk guy is in PP or SV.
if hes driving around in a converted car tuk tuk it will be in sihanoukville,
tbh i thought i instantly recognised the tuk tuk driver, hangs around between beach road near utopia and the pier, also drives a converted car tuk tuk,
apparently her and her husband moved here in September... tbh i dont know why they would need to have a "regular" tuk tuk driver, tuk tuks are expensive in SHV, and most drivers are drug dealers, this guy included,
according to her husbands facebook, he likes magic mushrooms, i think they probably befriended this tuk tuk driver as a regular drug dealer, who then decided to rat them out

@JL Cheers for the info. The face is familar. Do you mean where the CTT minivans get in from PP on the corner across from Utopia ? Think I might've seen him there.
Nuther photo where he looks a bit different : Image

I have a couple friends and family members who are or who have been tuktuk drivers, so I have nothing against them in general, but those guys in SV are something else and I have no plans to make friends with them or buy anything off them or invite them to my home. These guys are really bad news.

Hello, Sihanoukville's finest FB gossip reporter and drama llama here, keeping you all up to date with the feuds, insults and scams taking place on FB and IRL in Sihanoukville: ;-)

In a dramatic turn of events, the same poor girl who was reporting on FB that she and her boyfriend were scammed by a friendly tuktuk driver and planted with drugs, is herself accused of menacing another woman with Russian thugs over the sum of $2.
The other woman says she feels threatened so is letting everyone know. Sihanoukville has hit a new low. Threats and Russian minders over a $2 debt? I know that makes 4 beers, but really...

That's about it, but the FB post is here if you want the (extremely petty) details :

So, it looks like I already have threats being made against me to have Russians come and do 'nice things to me' by one https://www.facebook.com/VanessaTanzt?fref=ts. This woman had been on my friends list for a month or so because we had discussed living together. Wow, am I glad I didn't do that. Before I came down to Snooki, she had asked me to bring her some items. So when it appeared I was coming I told her I did not have time to go get them. She begged me to go look for them and eventually I said ok. So she sent me $15 dollars on Wing. I then spent 3 hours riding around Phnom Penh looking for these things, in several Khmer markets, and tourist places as well. No luck. I was late for doing what I needed to do, sweating and frustrated, so I went back home and told her i could not find them, and that I would send $10 back on wing the next day. We had agreed that I would keep some anyway for trying or getting them, and I felt $5 was a good pay for 3 hours really hard labor. I told her this and then was berated over the $5. There was no appreciation for my effort, and she became rude over the supposed fact I owed her $12, not $10.

Here is where it gets ugly. I was angry due to her treatment of me, and I told her off (but I still offered to pay the $10). This woman's boyfriend is in prison for drugs here in Snooki. She says it was a set up, but in my anger I told her it was likely that the charges were valid, because she was acting like a druggie over the $2. I then told her I would send the $10 in a few days, and blocked her.

I wake up and I have a phone full of text threats. She threatened to have her Russian friends come pay me a visit because she knows where I am, and that they do nice things for $10, and how I need to shut the F up, and other insults. Here are the pictures of the texts and a full video of the entire set of three. In the comments below, I will add more info as I can get it here.

BEWARE of any business dealings with this person!

If it goes sour she will threaten harm with her Russian friends!

I am reporting this to https://www.facebook.com/nop.sambo.9, a nice local well known police officer in the morning. I will also contact her nationality's Embassy to report her threats, if I can. I will also be sharing this on all Cambodia forums.

So, if anything happens to me, you all know who did it.
Thanks. Please see the comments for pictures and video, shortly.

There are easier ways of earning $5 dollars here for much less work. Or so I'm told :lol:

The OP from Facebook is becoming well known for petty squabbles with expats and locals alike. She is Russian and has a few pending feuds being plastered on FB groups and quickly deleted by admins.
One of those people who have a maelstrom of drama over nothing surrounding them.

Who the hell sends $15 by Wing and then Wings $10 back? Doesn't it cost 6000 riel just to send? Fucking weirdos.
