A 22-year-old man, Kwabena Osei and his 19-year-old girlfriend, Princess, have been burnt to death by friends over GHS 190,000 allegedly made from internet fraud in Kasoa, Ghana,
According to a report by GhPage, Osei, an alleged member of a gang of internet fraudsters, was targeted after he refused to share the substantial spoils with his associates.
Friends of Osei had repeatedly confronted him, urging him to reconsider his decision to keep the money for himself. However, their appeals went unheeded, escalating tensions within the group.
In a desperate act, Osei’s friends allegedly doused his residence with petrol and ignited the flames, resulting in the complete destruction of the property.
Sadly, his girlfriend was present at the time and also succumbed to the fire.
Sources told GhPage that Princess was also involved in the fraudulent activities, allegedly serving as the voice of a supposed white lady to facilitate calls on behalf of Osei and his gang.
