They are back.

Arrived tonight at 7pm.   First one stopped me right outside customs.   Well dressed guy with official looking yellow id card.   Second was a girl, also with id card pinned to her jacket, intercepted me right in the middle of pedestrian crossing and spoke in low conspiratory tone.

The last two guys approached me at the Free Shuttle bus stop.   Definitely downmarket, both heavy, older, greasyface wearing shorts and ripped up tshirts.

All same question: "Taxi, Bangkok, Pattaya?"

^^ Yellow card suggests that they are the "official" AOT taxi operator. But behaving like a tout won't help. I think AOT should start stop giving them commission and give them fixed income instead so they would stop behaving like one.
