Fraud Lawyer in Narathiwat — Recover Funds from Scams, Mule Accounts & Online Fraud

Fraud victims should preserve evidence at the earliest opportunity — bank transfer slips, chat logs, and the recipient account details. Fraud is a criminal offence under Thailand's Penal Code, with online fraud also subject to the Computer-Related Crimes Act. Our team pursues both the criminal track (police complaint, investigation, prosecution) and the parallel civil track (recovery and asset attachment).

About our team in Narathiwat

Narathiwat has the longest border with Malaysia of the southern border provinces, with Sungai Kolok and Tak Bai as its main crossings. Its economy rests on rubber, border trade, and workers commuting to the Malaysian side, and it is one of the four provinces where the court applies Islamic law on family and inheritance with a Dato Yutithum sitting. The caseload spans cross-border trade, labour, land, and family and inheritance under Islamic principles.

Families with members working or holding assets on the Malaysian side commonly hit trouble at the estate-administration stage, because the assets sit in another jurisdiction under different principles. We set the order of steps clearly at the outset so the estate does not stall on both sides, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Narathiwat Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — fraud lawyer in Narathiwat

3 questions answered

Often yes, but speed is critical. The 24-72 hours after the transfer is the golden window — funds may not yet have been withdrawn or layered onward. We coordinate with the TCSD and the receiving bank to obtain an immediate freeze.
Yes — when harm occurs in Thailand, Thai courts have jurisdiction. Bringing the defendant to court can be complex, but the civil action can still be filed in Thailand. Enforcing against foreign-held assets requires international cooperation.
Contact a lawyer before giving any statement to the police, and gather evidence that you are also a victim (e.g., that you were deceived into opening the account). Representation from the investigation stage materially reduces the risk of being charged with money laundering.
