Romanians now being interviewed at Tourist Police HQ in Phuket City

Romanians Accused of Stealing from Phuket ATMs

Monday, March 14, 2011
FOUR Romanians - three men and a woman - have been arrested and accused of skimming from ATMs in Patong and possibly other parts of Phuket, Phuketwan has learned.

The four were arrested in Patong yesterday and will be presented to the media later today, said Tourist Police Superintendent, Colonel Ekachai Pramanakul.

Skimming usually involves detecting the PIN numbers and details of credit cards when the ATMs are being used, then subsequently using the information to make illegal withdrawals.
