A nightclub in Maha Sarakham is facing a probe after a social media post went viral suggesting it was offering female customers a free case of whiskey to seduce and have sex with male members of the club's staff.
The message on Facebook said female customers would be elligible to claim the free case of alcohol if they could provide evidence of bedding a staff member, such as a topless picture of her with the staff member.
The post included a video clip introducing five topless male staff at the unidentified club.
It was described as a sale promotion titled "chase them", and also showed images of rooms provided at the club for this purpose.
The club's "promotion" quickly went viral across social media channels, to the point where local police yesterday paid the club in Muang district a visit, said a source.
As a result, the pub now faces a maximum fine of 10,000 baht for violating Section 30 of the alcohol control law by offering special prizes or other promotional benefits for buying alcoholic beverages.
The authorities are also set to summon those who appeared in the video clip for questioning as part of the investigation, said the source.
Phongsakon Lasom, the manager of the club, told authorities the video clip was made for fun one night after the club was closed and the male staff had taken off their shirts while cleaning up the place.
Mr Phonsakon also added he didn't believe anyone would take this "teenage fun" so seriously, and he was surprised that it had gone viral and caught the attention of the local police.
It was left unclear whether anyone tried taking advantage of the offer.
