In the end, he finds himself behind bars. And penniless.
For some, any means is good. This is the case of this Thai lawyer – Sittra Biabungkerd – who used all possible and unimaginable stratagems to extract money from a client who had just won the Thai version of Euromillions.
First, this lawyer took 71 million baht (1.93 million euros) from his client, initially to create an online lottery. Obviously, the project and the money ended up disappearing. Once stopped, “the lawyer denied the accusations, saying that Jatuporn (the winner) gave him the money as a gift after he had provided him with legal advice for over a year”indicates The Nation Thailand website.

Shortly after – this Tuesday – a couple close to the lawyer were also arrested for trying to deceive… The same winner. This time, the couple asked for and received 39 million baht (1.06 million euros) from Jatuporn. In exchange, the evil lovebirds had to arrange a meeting for him with a local celebrity.
Once your hand is in the honey pot, “They claimed to have lost 39 million baht in bitcoins to hackers before being able to transfer the sum to the artist”continue our colleagues. The false complaint filed did nothing. Thai authorities didn’t believe a word of this story and still seized two luxury cars from the couple’s home.
