Two Ghanaian nationals and residents in the USA have been arrested in relation to charges of wire fraud.

The two, Kelvin Nkwantabisa of Atlanta and Justice Amoh of Bronx, have been accused of orchestrating an elaborate scheme that resulted in the theft of approximately $7 million over the period of three years.

According to prosecutors, the suspects and their conspirators compromised victims' business email accounts to monitor and intercept emails, specifically those discussing wire transfers.

They further indicated that the co-conspirators, pretending to be legitimate business partners, sent emails containing false and fraudulent payment requests and wire instructions to their unsuspecting victims.

These emails directed victims to transfer money into bank accounts controlled by the group.

Police in the US, however, have been able to arrest some of the suspects and process them for prosecution.
