5Not really a 'scam', in sense of being illegal, but the fees at Thai ATMs are pretty high by international standards, like ~$7 USD regardless of transaction size, and then your own bank will probably ding you on top of that.Spehro 'speff' Pefhany– Spehro 'speff' Pefhany2026-01-07 13:50:55 +00:00Commented Jan 7 at 13:50

I just spend two weeks in Thailand and found people by and large to be exceptionally honest, friendly and helpful. Of course, its not entirely scam free and you may run into something especially at the tourist hotspots but the risk in Thailand feels lower to me than in almost any other country, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.Hilmar– Hilmar2026-01-07 16:32:02 +00:00Commented Jan 7 at 16:32

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. air-travel), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
