It's outrageous. You're at your hobby farm in the country, just pottering around, so you stuff the US$580,000 (19.3 million baht) in your pocket under the sofa cushions temporarily just to get it out of the way. Then you forget it when you are gathering things up to go back to the city. It could happen to anybody.
However, thieves break into your country house while you're away and steal the money. You consider reporting it to the police, but you know they are struggling to keep up with the crime wave so you decide to forget about it. And even though it was foreign currency, you don't report it to the tax authorities either because you never got to spend it. Or something like that.
But then events take a turn decidedly for the worse. A man called Arthur Fraser sends a dossier to the police reporting that you got the money and that it was not actually $580,000 but a whole $4,000,000. And since Mr Fraser was the country's former chief spy, they take him seriously and come to you looking for answers. What do you tell them?
