Worranan Srilum, Director of the Illegal Financial Business Bureau, revealed
that he assigned Miss Prim Sariya, Head of the Illegal Financial Business Crime
Division 2, as the head of the special case inquiry team for special case no.
14/2566, regarding the case of being deceived into investing in lending through
the 'Third Credit' application, along with the team of special case inquiry
officials, to visit several in the northeast region to facilitate witnesses who
suffered damages in providing their statements in the aforementioned special
case, as follows:
1.
From March 3 to 4, 2025 – Witnesses
from Nakhon Ratchasima Province and nearby provinces were summoned for interviews
at Nakhon Ratchasima Provincial Police Station.
2.
From March 5 to 7, 2025 – Witnesses
from Surin Province and nearby provinces were summoned for interviews at the
Surin Provincial Police Station.
3.
From March 10 to 11, 2025 – Witnesses
from Udon Thani Province and nearby provinces were summoned for interviews at
Udon Thani Provincial Police Station.
4.
From March 12 to 14, 2025 – Witnesses

This case involves the deception of
the general public into investing in lending through the Third Credit
application. It falsely claims that the money would be used to provide loans to
companies worldwide seeking investment funds. Investment units were denominated
in U.S. dollars, and various investment options were offered, including daily
returns or fixed-term investments of 30, 60, or 180 days, with promises of high
returns. However, there is no evidence that any legitimate business operations
were conducted under the law. The initial estimated damages amount to
approximately 113 million baht. Therefore, the DSI requests that all witnesses
who have received summonses appear before the special case inquiry official at
the designated dates, times, and locations to provide their statements. Subsequently,
the special case inquiry team will compile evidence and consider issuing summonses or
arrest warrants for the suspects.
