Police are investigating a Ponzi scheme that a 75-year-old woman fell victim to. The woman reportedly lost GH₵50,000.
The suspects allegedly promised the elderly woman high financial returns on her investment. However, they vanished with the money instead of providing any returns.
The incident occurred recently in Accra. The Ghana Police Service has confirmed an active investigation into the matter.
Investigators are working to identify and apprehend the individuals behind the fraudulent scheme. The total amount lost highlights the significant impact of such scams on vulnerable individuals.
This case serves as a reminder for the public to be cautious of investment offers promising unusually high returns.
