Hello Everyone.Just want to share something.Important Reminder

Some advise at the Free Duty Shop
FREE
Got this from a friend, it's good to share:...
This can happen... MUST READ....
BE CAREFUL WHILE TRAVELING.....
An Indian was detained in Thailand for stealing a box of cigarettes in a duty-free shop at Bangkok International Airport... He had paid for chocolates and a carton of cigarette. The cashier put a packet of cigarette extra into his bag and the customer thought it was a free pack. He was arrested for shop-lifting and the Thai Police extortion price was 30,000 Baht for his release. He spent two nights in jail and paid 500 Baht for an air-con cell, 200 - 300 baht for each of his visitor and 11,000 baht for his final release.
The Police shared the money right in front of his eyes. On top of that, he was charged in court and fined 2,000 baht by the magistrate and handcuffed and escorted to his plane. His passport was stamped "Thief". While there, his relatives requested help from the Indian Embassy and was told that they are helpless, many Asians are victimize similarly daily and letters and phone-calls to the Thai authorities are ignored. He shared a cell with a Singaporean the first night who paid 60,000 baht for his release. The second night was a Malaysian national who paid 70,000 baht. Mind you this was not in a shanty shop in downtown Bangkok but ... in a duty free shop at the Bangkok Int'l Airport.
BE WARNED....
The above is 100% correct information cos Mr.Rajan Khera's customer from India faced exactly the same scenario mentioned above when he was in transit at Bangkok Int'l Airport coming to Taipei...
Someone who went through the same ordeal in Dubai, had bought stuff at the Duty Free upon entering. The girl at Dutyfree put a bottle of cologne in his shopping bag (he did not even see it happen). He was arrested for stealing (this is before he even picked up his luggage). He sat at the airport jail where he was harassed for the whole day. NO FOOD, NO WATER for one day and only after he paid a fine (bribe of US 500). That's all the cash he had in his pocket at the time. They let him go. These are scams that are happening all over the place.
Please BE CAREFUL!
All of this is pre-planned and the people who work at the airport know who to target. Unbelievable but apply caution.... the duty free employees intentionally put extra items to scam the passengers.....
ALWAYS TAKE A RECEIPT FOR ANY FREE GIFT THAT THE DUTY FREE SHOP GIVES. PLEASE BE CAREFUL AND WATCHFUL WHEN YOU ARE BEING BILLED AND ITEMS PACKED IN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTS (DUTY FREE SHOPS).
This post is to warn Foreigners and Thai people to avoid this trap and expecting this issue will be noticed by Thai government and catch the group who are involved in earning the easy money by damaging the Duty Free Shop and Thailand reputation

짧게 정리하자면 방콕 공항 면세점 직원과 경찰이 한 몫 건지려고 팀을 이뤄

공항 면세점에서 물건을 구입하는(특히 담배, 향수등) 손님을 상대로 구입하지 않은 담배나 향수등을

손님 면세가방에 슬쩍 같이 넣고 절도범으로 몰아 벌금(현금으로)을 물게하는 형식입니다.

반드시 반드시 본인이 구입한 물건 갯수와 품목을 직원앞에서 확인을 하시는게 안전한 방법이네요

또한 직원이 엉뚱한 짓을 하는지 지켜보는 것도 방법 중 하나일수도 있겠구요

경찰이 벌금을 눈앞에서 나눠 가졌다고 하는점. 교도소에 있으면서 같은 수법으로 당해 들어온 다른 여행자도

있었다는 점과 벌금이 달랐다는 점등은 참으로 가관입니다.

또한 몇시간 동안 구금되면서 물과 음식등을 주지않았고, 더군다나 수갑을 채운채로 비행기에 이송되었다는 점그리고 여권에 "도둑"이란 도장을 찍었다는 상황들은 기가 막히네요

혹시 방콕을 경유를 하던지 또는 출,입국 무엇이 되었든 조심하시길 바랍니다.

댓글에선 방콕 말고도 다른 지역 공항에서도 빈번이 일어나는 일이라고 달렸네요

조심하시기 바랍니다.
