The 36-year-old met Amy in Thailand in January, when she posed as a Hong Kong tourist who had lost her passport and wallet, according to Thai media. Amy borrowed money from him to pay for a hotel stay and quickly struck up a close relationship after exchanging contact details.

The man dated her several times and lent her money to pay for insurance and medical expenses, but she never paid him back. Amy then tricked him into buying her gold, which she then cashed out before disappearing.

On August 4, the 49-year-old Thai transgender woman, whose real name is Uthai Nantakhan, was arrested in Bangkok. Police said she often posed as a tourist from Taiwan or Hong Kong, lying and manipulating men to gain sympathy.

She often claimed she had lost her wallet and needed money to renew her passport, or pretended to be infected with Covid-19 to get money for medical treatment. Amy also tricked victims into investing in fake businesses, then declared the projects failed and absconded with the money.

Police discovered that all of Amy's victims were Japanese. Amy said her Japanese ex-boyfriend had dumped her years ago, and that pain had driven her to crime.

"When I was in college, my Japanese boyfriend dumped me on a trip , leaving all the bills for me to pay. I was heartbroken," she said. "I was also cheated out of money by another Japanese man before, so I really hated Japanese people and wanted to get revenge on Japanese men."

Police said Amy defrauded 73 Japanese men of up to 26 million baht between 2011 and 2024.

In Thailand, people convicted of fraud can face up to three years in prison and a maximum fine of 60,000 baht ($1,800).

Amy's story has sparked heated debate on social media. One YouTube user wrote: "Amy's experience of being cheated by Japanese men may just be an excuse." Another said: "Shortsightedness led her to the path of crime. The best way to get revenge on people you hate is to become a better person."
