A woman in Nakhon Ratchasima has shared her experience of purchasing a fake gold ring online for 6,730 baht. She paid for the 1.9-gramme ring in three installments, with the delivery taking about eight days as it was shipped from overseas. The woman had bought the ring through a popular shopping app, though she did not name the platform.
Upon receiving the ring, she was suspicious of its packaging and filmed herself opening it to inspect. When she took the ring to a nearby gold shop, the staff informed her that it was not genuine gold. The seller had already closed down and could not be contacted, so she reached out to the platform's customer service for a refund.
The case is still under investigation, but she has advised other online shoppers to check sellers' credentials and compare prices with the market rate, as unusually low prices should be treated with caution. She also recommended filming the arrival and opening of parcels, as video evidence can support a claim.
