The Ashanti Regional Police have apprehended a 28-year-old man in Kumasi. He is accused of deceiving several individuals.
The suspect reportedly pretended to be a bank official. This allowed him to gain the trust of his victims.
He allegedly collected significant amounts of money from these people. The man promised them loans that would earn high interest.
The Ghana Police Service is investigating the full extent of the alleged fraud. Further details on the number of victims and the total sums involved are being gathered.
Authorities urge the public to be cautious of individuals offering financial services. Always verify identities and credentials before giving money.
