In social networks there was information that St. Petersburg was robbed by a new friend during a holiday in Thailand. The man introduced himself as a florist, and turned out to be an international scammer.

The girl met a 27-year-old man on a dating site. He helped her with her medication during the poisoning and quietly remembered their hotel room number. Waiting for the tourists to leave for the tour, he convinced the reception staff to give him a new key card without checking documents. Having penetrated the room, the attacker opened the suitcase and stole a camera with a lens for 145 thousand rubles, as well as about 100 thousand in cash.

After the story was published on the Internet, other victims responded. The man, originally from Bishkek, used different names and deceived people in several countries, including Russia, Georgia and Turkey. According to the tourist, he is now in Almaty.
