Police arrested a Chinese man for stealing customers’ credit card information and using it to make purchases, causing losses of more than 29 million baht. Officers from the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECD) raided three businesses in Chiang Mai and on Yaowarat Road in Bangkok after receiving complaints from Chinese nationals about suspected credit card data theft. According to Channel 7, the victims discovered their credit cards had been used in the US despite never travelling there. Police later identified the additional device as a credit card data extractor installed by Chao and subsequently arrested him. According to police, the Chinese man admitted sharing the stolen payment card information with a friend in the US.
