Norway Bar, "the lost investment"?

by **beer monkey** » November 24, 2008, 4:47 pm

He was very naive and extremely wet behind the ears, and because he was probably getting plenty of 'action'..which he might not of had for a long time he was blinded by the light(and the I Lub You's)...he was warned by his pal, but choose to think and act by himself..a dangerous combination for the first timer in Thailand looking for 'love', they must stick out like a sore thumb to the 'vultures' that are out there, still feel sorry for the geezer...wonder what he is hurting more over loosing his 'wonderful' new wife ,or loosing 800000baht (probably a lot more too) and what about the (false) thai smile that he probably read so much about thinking it was a good sign.
How could he plot some return fire..Mmmm well getting his mate to post on here complete with photo is a good start, and going to the bar asking for Norway man and not ordering is a good one too, will she be ...Nahhh probably not well its not her cash she will be loosing is it, sure she is looking out for a new target as we post.

Maybe he will join our forum, would like to hear more from him phitoo.

If he has time he could set up a sting, perhaps shaw taylor could get involved.

he was given a picture and telephon number in july ,from a thai lady (friend of this lady)who works in an restaurant and living in Germany, where he also has been working in the last 6years.

According to the poster, this is where he got the contact. He may want to have a chat with the Thai lady living in Germany.

Agreed he was gullible, didn't listen to his friend, or go slowly or prudently, but that doesn't justify the action of the female in question (note I didn't say lady). Whether he was stupid or not, that doesn't mean I don't feel sorry for him; and out of a feeling of justice and fairness I certainly don't propose to give that bar my custom. :wave:

I think withdrawing your custom is a good idea arjay, if it changes anything for the good i'm not so sure.
Not a bad idea though

Good idea, valuable lessons can be learnt from a chap who's been burnt by such a lady. This story is also now archived on this forum and can be resurrected again should the lady attempt a similar scam. It's important to learn from Phitoo's friend and not judge him (not that anyone has yet).

Easy to criticise from the comfort of a chair. We are not in his position and we know how things are here but at the time he did not and the only thing he did wrong was trust. Something that is very easy to do when you see a sweet smile... It is hard to believe that behind the sweet smile could lurk a scheming con artist.

The Elvis (Joe South) song goes:

If I could be you, if you could be me
For just one hour, if we could find a way
To get inside each other's mind
If you could see you through my eyes
Instead your own ego I believe you'd be
I believe you'd be surprised to see
That you've been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes

My friend have been in contact with this german lady twice after his return ,and last week she explained for him that she really don't know this lady at all,and that It was her sister living in Udon, who recommend this lady ,even she either didn't know nothing about her , because of that they only have met in the neighborhood,and what I belive was a afternon-school ,and where they had been talking about have a foreigner to take care for them,and this sister already have met one man,and so "most kindly " give my friend for her.

When my friend went to Udon for the first time,I tell him to take care and dont belive in everything told,because of my own experience with sick buffalos,brothers who need a operation in the hospital without money etc etc. but in this case it was really something else ,and IT knocked him out .

This lady thrully took his hand and told him after some days that "this german thailady and her sister "who had recommend her for him,was "mafia" and the two of them wanted 50% from everything she could get out of him,
but "as a honestly and good hearted woman who had really felled in love with him ",SHE told him that she wanted to get out of this" mafia conspiration" and suggest to change telephonnumber to get rid of any contact with this 2 NO GOOD LADIES ,and so they did.

Now the germanwoking and her sister is very concerned about his welfare ,and is very sorry for that he closed his telephone,because when they really understand what this lady was alike ,they couldnt take contact and warn him .
What can i do ? - :mrgreen:

Do you think someone can sell this as a good soap opera. It seems like the more reply's put on here the more the story goes.

Guess I am a bit cynical. :shock:

Well the bar is still open - drove past last night about 10.30.
Didn't stop, just glanced in - zero customers. But I don't think anywhere is especially busy last night, apart from those hosting pool that is...

Rumour in town (from 2 seperate sources) is that the 800k was really 400k.

Only hearsay, can't confirm one way or the other.

Anyone on good enough terms with Pla/Jerome to find out what they know about this lady?
She must have had some sort of contact with them before buying the bar. :-k
