Kasikornbank Denies Existence of Anutin Charnvirakul Account Amid Viral Transfer Slip
Kasikornbank has officially refuted the authenticity of a viral 7-million-baht transfer slip attributed to Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, citing transaction limits.
Kasikornbank (KBank) has issued a formal statement addressing a viral image circulating on social media that allegedly shows a 7-million-baht money transfer to an account belonging to Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul. According to Thai Post, the bank conducted an internal investigation and confirmed that no such account exists under the name of the Deputy Prime Minister.
Furthermore, the bank clarified the technical limitations of its digital banking platform, K PLUS. The institution stated that the maximum transfer limit for a single transaction via the K PLUS application is capped at 2 million baht. This technical constraint directly contradicts the details presented in the viral image, which claimed a single transfer of 7 million baht.
For residents and travelers in Thailand, this incident serves as a reminder to exercise caution regarding the authenticity of financial documents shared on social media platforms. Digital misinformation can often be debunked by verifying technical specifications and official statements from service providers. While the bank has clarified the impossibility of the specific transaction shown in the image, the origin of the fabricated slip remains a matter for further investigation. Users are encouraged to rely on official banking channels for information regarding transaction limits and account security.
