Ghanaian musician and socialite Mona Faiz Montrage, better known as Hajia4Real, is reportedly facing trial in the United States for an alleged $2 million romance scam.
According to reports, the 27-year-old socialite was arrested in the US and charged with conspiracy to commit fraud and money laundering. It is alleged that she was involved in a scheme where she and her associates targeted wealthy men on dating sites and social media platforms, claiming to be looking for love. Once they gained the men’s trust, they allegedly convinced them to send large sums of money, which were then laundered through a network of bank accounts and shell companies.
The alleged scam reportedly took place between 2017 and 2020, with the victims believed to be from the United States and other countries.
Hajia4Real has not yet commented on the allegations, but the news has sparked outrage among her fans and supporters in Ghana and beyond.
This is not the first time a celebrity has been implicated in such a scam. In recent years, several high-profile individuals have been arrested and charged with romance scams, which have become increasingly common in the digital age.
The case is ongoing, and further details are expected to emerge in the coming days and weeks. We will continue to follow this story and provide updates as they become available.
