The United States government has, over the past few years, cracked down on groups and individuals who have been scamming millions of dollars from its citizens.

Unfortunately, several Ghanaians have been caught engaging in these fraudulent acts.

Since 2021, US authorities have arrested and prosecuted more than 20 Ghanaians for engaging in all forms of fraudulent activities, including wire fraud, romance scams, and money laundering.

In February 2021, for instance, investigative authorities in the United States announced the arrest of six Ghanaians suspected of being part of a notorious 'sakawa' gang, The Enterprise, across some states in the USA at different times.
