The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) strongly urges everyone reject incoming calls from abroad starting with +697, +698, or +66, as they are phone scams. Though +66 is Thailand’s country code, if a call is made via Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), it should initially be suspected of being a scam. These phone scams will ask for personal information and try to deceive anyone answering the call.

To report the clues or any other information about the phone scams, please call the Anti-Online Scam Operation Center (AOT), hotline number 1441.
