GHANA – SMALL MIRACLES: Scammers Arrested In Ghana
26 ‘Yahoo’ Boys Including Nigerians Arrested In Ghana, Laptops And Phones Recovered
In a rare sign of prosecution in Ghana, 26 scammers / internet fraudsters popularly known as ‘Yahoo’ boys have been apprehended by the Madina Divisional Police Command on Friday in Ghana.
According to multiple online reports from Ghana, about twenty six of them including Nigerians are suspected to be engaged in cyber crime.
Since it is Ghana, details are scarce, but this was as a result of recent training by the United States Department of Justice given to Ghana’s prosecutors in a move to both professionalize them and reduce corruption.
As you can see though, these are not a part of any of the larger syndicates. These are independent low level scammers.

Ruth, sadly it just doesn’t work that way. The information you have is fake – not the real team of scammers behind the fake identity. About 100 scammers are being arrested in West Africa a week now, but the police there do not identify the fake names that they use, or notify their victims. This is just fake information and you will probably never know which is why we advise that you report them and then turn away and focus on your own recovery.

Is there anyway to contact the actual person in the picture being victimized. I would like to at least send a message to Danielle Delaunay. Is there any possible way to even send her a message? My email is ; [EMAIL REMOVED – POLICY VIOLATION]…thnx..Marty
We will not assist you to stalk another victim. The victims of identity theft and impersonation have every right to their own privacy. Regardless of what you feel you do not have a right to intrude in her life.
Nigerian or Ghanan Romance Scammer using the name of John Pham and photos of a Russian Politician, on his FB profile. He tried to scam 3580 us dollars from my ex-wife under the pretext that he wanted to ship some Gold billions to Australia to be used for their future wedding and children via an African freight forwarder. he even sent a bogus freight invoice for the freight
Did you report his Facebook profile into our system?
I believe I was scammed of doing reshipping scam. There were several laptops and phones involved. The mans name that was being used is Phil Wilson and he’s on Facebook using one of my profile pictures. He also has a gmail account using Philph Willison. This went on for two years and it was also romance induced. This person was very slick. He needs to be caught. He would have me ship these items to a shipping agency in Accra. He would send me the shipping Fedex labels. There had been times of mens clothing and many pairs of tennis shoes being involved in these shippings. Please find him before he breaks someone else’s heart.
You need to contact your local police immediately since you may be subject to arrest if this comes to light.

Will you be posting photos of the women used in the scams and the names used for the scams in the arrest of 26 scammers in Ghana and Nigeria on Friday so we at large will know if we were scammed by them, the yahoo boys and girls?
NOT UNLESS WE OBTAIN THAT INFORMATION – TRUTHFULLY IT DOESN’T MATTER – THESE WERE VERY LOW LEVEL SCAMMERS – THERE ARE TENS OF THOUSANDS SCAMMERS IN GHANA AND MILLIONS OF NAMES
Unfortunately scammers are everywhere
Could you trace any of the scammers I am the victim of : Brian Hart, Godfred Adjei, Benjamin Smith
There are over 100,000 active scammers in Africa. Report the scammer, then block them, and try to move on with your life. If enough information is ultimately reported then options become available. But you will only waste more money trying to track a scammer down.
