Sending money to Thailand
An elderly man in the UK sent thousands of pounds to Thailand for a person he had only communicated with via video calls, prompting concern from a bystander who suspected a scam. The post office employee processed the transaction despite the bystander's intervention, and the man later expressed regret over the decision.
