People in Mona Faiz Montrage's social and business circles, also known as Hajia4Real, are now of interest, according to the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC).
In a perverse lonely hearts scam, 30-year-old Montrage is accused of stealing over $2 million from older, unmarried American men and women.
The Ghanaian socialite faces fraud and money laundering charges in the United States after being extradited from the United Kingdom.
Thursday on Starr FM's Morning Starr, the Deputy Manager of the FIC, Shaun Henry Osei, stated that his agency is collaborating with INTERPOL and the FBI to investigate all individuals discovered in Hajia4Reall's circles.
Obviously, she will not be operating alone; rather, she will be part of a network. The evidence that you have access to will actually enable you to determine who her larger network is, and if you discover her larger network, you will instinctively want to investigate those individuals because they become persons of interest.
Following Osei's remarks, some Internet users have asserted that Shatta Wale, Medikal, and Ghanaian businessman Ibrahim Mahama are among the individuals of interest.
It is no secret that Montrage associates with wealthy and influential individuals who have been suspected of fraud, but who use other business ventures to conceal their fraudulent schemes.
