Just go after the person of that American firm who was assigned to close this deal. He might have been forgot himself once being entertained in Thailand during his personal visit to discuss and site visit to witness the production operations before closing the deal.

I fully agree with KaptainRob. Well done, Leah!

Solly she cannot attend court, person of that name we cannot find. 

Changed her name again ??????, something extremely easy to do in Thailand.

Just ask the drug dealing politician who was busted in Australia and then became a Poli. here in Thailand under another name.

Article quote: “For example, a fraud perpetrated privately carries a maximum sentence of three years—regardless of the amount of the fraud. In Sinhaseni’s case, three years in prison for 239 million baht works out to nearly 80 million baht a year—the reward from committing fraud far outweighs the maximum penalty.”

In this case crime does pay and is certainly worth the time.
