Details about the specific methods used by the syndicate were released by the Ghana Police Service. They highlighted the danger of online deception.
The investigation is ongoing. Police are working to gather more evidence and potentially identify other members of the syndicate.
This action is part of broader efforts to combat cybercrime in Ghana. Authorities urge the public to remain vigilant against online threats.
