CityNews – At 10 a.m., February 17th, The Provincial Police Region 5 Office held a press conference about the investigation which led to the arrest of Miss Saowaluk Khamkun, (18), who is accused of selling iPhones, but when the purchase was made she would deliver food stuffs such as som tam.

Police said that Saowaluk would post an ad on Facebook of an iPhone 5, but sent her customers crispy Khao Soi or Som Tam instead. They tracked her down to Donut Internet café on Baan Tor-Patan Road, T. Patan, A Muang, Chiang Mai.

Between December 2013 and January 2014, many victims filed police reports naming a suspect who went by the name “Mo May”, who also had an obscured profile on Facebook.  Mo May would ask people to wire transfer half the money up front for a phone. After the victims saw the postal receipt, they wired her the other half of the money. The packages’ contents were not iPhones but some random items with equal size and weight to an iPhone. The police also charged her with opening a bank account with another person’s identification card.
