NICHA KIATTHANAPAIBOON (Thailand): a 24-year-old woman whose stolen Thai ID card was allegedly used by fraudsters, said on Wednesday (Jan 10) that she was prepared to sue seven Thai banks that allowed an elusive female suspect, who wore a medical face mask, to open nine bank accounts under her name.
Meanwhile, Thai Bankers’ Association chairman Predee Daochai revealed a plan to implement in the middle of this year a “Nation Digital ID” system for stricter confirmation of the identities of those applying to open bank accounts.
