The Adenta Police has arrested three men who attempted to withdraw money from a bank account using fake voter’s identity card. The suspects are Thomas Addo Dankwah, aka Scare, 23, Adegbe Jerry, 26 year old baker and Frank Sissah, 35 year old Internet café operator. The three suspects attempted to withdraw an amount of $1000 from the bank when police apprehended them.
Briefing Daily Guide, DSP Stephen Ahiatafu, Adenta District Police Commander, said the suspects were nabbed on November 1, 2013 on the premises of the said Bank at Adentan.
The facts are that one of the suspect, Thomas Addo Dankwah, who posed as a woman with name Lucy Sarpong on Facebook, managed to defraud a foreign friend $1000.
The money was sent through money transfer and so the suspect needed an identity card with name Lucy Sarpong to receive the money. Thomas then contacted Jerry and convinced him to let his wife use her voteridentity card to clear the money for them.
