I guess these Russians still don't know that in Pattaya only Sharky is allowed to walk around with an expensive gold necklace ...

Just proves the point that Crime Doesn't Pay!!!

This kind of stories are everyday especially in Jomtien. If someone travels to a specific area and identify in advance potential nebezpwčí maybe, it's up to the risk. Doubly true for the Russians, who are at this incorrigible. On the other hand, this nasty trick fully condemn theft and other scams as well as jet-ski and etc it adds to the reputation of the area.

200 Baht fine and off you go

they will be saying how sad they were that she never got away with the Russians gold   

Great job. I'm starting to get in love with LadyBoys...

 

That will give a good message to all the Boris : Pattaya is a very dangerous criminal place. Don't come here
