Police want to find out if the parents of Jariyaporn Buayai conspired in her alleged duping of at least 13 men into marriage.

Jariyaporn, 32, from Loei’s Wang Saphung district, is accused of tricking the men into marrying her and then fleeing with their dowries and wedding gifts.

She allegedly married four men in one month, in separate weddings.

Thirteen victims filed complaints with the Crime Suppression Bureau in Bangkok on Tuesday, claiming they were defrauded of anywhere from Bt100,000 to Bt500,000 each.

The victims, living in various provinces, met her online and were convinced of her sincerity when she presented an elderly couple as her parents once the subject of a wedding and dowry came up.
