Steps to Report Fraud in Thailand:

  • Act Quickly to Protect Your Finances: If you’ve been scammed, immediately contact your bank’s fraud department to report unauthorized transactions, request chargebacks, or freeze accounts to prevent further losses.
  • Gather Evidence: Collect all relevant documentation, including communications (emails, texts, or call records), receipts, contracts, and transaction records. This evidence is critical for building a strong case.  All evidence will need to be translated into Thai.
  • File a Complaint with Authorities: Report the fraud to the local police. For cyber fraud, contact the Technology Crime Suppression Division (TCSD). Provide detailed evidence and a clear account of the incident. The police will often need assistance.
  • Seek Legal Counsel: Consult Formichella & Sritawat to understand your rights and explore legal options for recovery.

Fraud cases in Thailand can involve both civil and criminal proceedings, requiring expert navigation of complex legal processes.
