According to authorities, a former insurance salesperson who continued to sell bogus policies has been arrested in connection with losses totaling more than 22 million baht.
Officers from the Economic Crime Suppression Division apprehended the 45-year-old guy, only named as Setthawut, at a petrol station in Chon Buri on Saturday. He was wanted on three warrants.
Mr Setthawut was wanted for forging documents, scamming others, and entering incorrect data into a computer system. The allegations arose from the marketing of life insurance plans and the failure to set up the policies.
Nine complaints were filed with an insurance firm in January of this year, alleging that despite having paid premiums for almost five years, the policyholders were unable to submit claims with the company.
After researching the reports, the business discovered that the victims had been given false documents. The estimated damages totaled 22 million baht, leading the corporation to call the police.
Authorities were able to trace the documents back to Mr Setthawut, who had previously worked as an insurance agent.
A lady named only as Wannasa was also allegedly implicated. She had previously been arrested for fabricating paperwork, including bank transfer slips.
The suspect has rejected all charges, but investigators are seeking additional legal action.
