BANGKOK, Jan 6 — Two Romanian suspects were detained in the Thai capital for alleged involvement in a transnational counterfeit electronic ATM card syndicate, Central Investigation Bureau deputy chief Pol Maj Gen Panya Mamen told at a press briefing on Thursday.
Vint Danail, 25 and Roatis Sergiu Virgil, 24, were apprehended in Yaowarat, Bangkok’s Chinatown, while using counterfeited electronic data cards to withdraw cash from Thai automated teller machines (ATMs).
Police searched the duo’s hotel room in Bangkok and seized 366 forged ATM cards, cash valued at Bt130,000 (about US$4,300) and a set of electronic devices for storing card data.
