If you are not already aware of this ... perhaps you should take note!

A young Thai lady rented one of our cars a fortnight ago, along with two scooters ( MO-Ci's).She checked in everyday with the same story. " One more day please" We didn't think anything of it, after all she was Police, from the border patrol. We eventually found out she had hocked our vehicles, along with one rented from the Petchkasem hotel.
We reported it to her bosses. Now this is a response that could only happen here.

" Stolen two cars and two bikes and sold them. Oh dear. She's always doing that"

If 'she's always doing that' what the fcuk is she doing walking around free. To compound matters, the people she hocked them with have contacted us and said " You can have the cars back when you pay up"
" But they're stolen"
" So, you must still pay for them"

Has anyone else had any experiences like this?

If she's really with the Police, why didn't she just pull a gun out and rob you?

Save all the fuss of selling cars and such!

Quite, or set up road blocks and stop motorist pretending they are speeding or in the wrong lane. Don't even need a gun then  :D :D
