Do I need to worry about girl taking my phone?

[TravelerX]

Very specific question. I know to keep my valuables in the hotel safe. It is less convenient to do so with my phone. If I pick up a girl on the street, any risk of it being taken while I'm asleep? I figure she won't take off until she is paid, and my iPhone is several years old. But I will have Find My Phone disabled so family members won't know I'm in Pattaya.

How about you kick her out after you finish

Why not put your phone in the safe afterwards? Why would you need your phone while you're sleeping?

Crime rates are mich lower in thailand, do what makes you comfortable

I’m sure that there have been cases where a phone was taken but for the most part you are safe. Just watch for red flags �� and abort if you are not comfortable. It will help if you stay in a hotel that takes ladies ID. The hotel will not give back the ID without you present or giving permission by phone.

It’s paradise for westerners, enjoy it! Warning ⚠️ try not to fall in love every day ��

The girl probably has a better phone than you. You have nothing to worry about.

30 years of traveling to Thailand, no one has ever stolen anything from me. The only place I've ever been robbed was in America.
