Thai immigration authorities have apprehended two Chinese nationals accused of orchestrating a massive cryptocurrency pyramid scheme.

According to a report by Matichon Online on November 12, 2026, the Thai Immigration Bureau conducted a targeted operation resulting in the arrest of two Chinese citizens. The individuals are reportedly key figures in a cryptocurrency pyramid scheme that allegedly caused damages exceeding 3.2 billion baht. The suspects were apprehended after being identified as subjects of outstanding arrest warrants related to these financial crimes. For residents and travelers, this operation highlights the ongoing efforts by Thai law enforcement to track and apprehend foreign nationals who may be using the country to evade international justice. While the arrests represent a significant step in the investigation, details regarding the extradition process and the specific timeline for their transfer to Chinese authorities remain to be confirmed. The Immigration Bureau has not yet released further information regarding whether additional accomplices are being sought within Thailand. Those interested in the case should monitor official updates from the Royal Thai Police for further developments regarding the legal proceedings.
