US-based Ghanaian woman narrates how TV presenter scammed her of $30,000 and two cars

Speaking on Kumasi-based Sompa FM, the lady, who gave her name as Auntie Ophelia, revealed how she was deceived into sending over $30,000 and two cars to the presenter.

Auntie Ophelia explained that her ordeal began when she called into KB Media, a media outlet where the presenter, identified as Elisha Malope, was hosting a programme.

During the show, Elisha was appealing for financial aid, and Auntie Ophelia decided to donate.

“After the show, a strange number called me and said he was the presenter on the show at that time. I was suspicious at first, so I verified with the station and confirmed it was this presenter,” she said.

The call soon turned into a personal relationship. According to Auntie Ophelia, Elisha expressed his love for her and even proposed marriage.

“We got talking, and he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me,” she recounted.

The two began an online relationship that lasted for eight months, during which Auntie Ophelia sent Elisha over $30,000 to help build a house and a recording studio and bought him two cars.

Despite her generosity, Auntie Ophelia began to feel suspicious about Elisha’s intentions.

To uncover the truth, she bought a phone, installed a tracker and recorder, and sent it to him through her sister, who was based in Ghana.

It was then that she discovered Elisha was in a relationship with another woman.

“I had tapped into one of his calls when I discovered that he was seeing another lady and was also planning to marry her. I confronted him, and he admitted his actions and asked for forgiveness,” she said.

When Auntie Ophelia demanded proof of the land she had sent money to develop, Elisha confessed that he had not purchased the land as promised.

“He said he didn’t buy the land and had spent the money on his girlfriend. He also sold the two cars I sent him,” she revealed.

Auntie Ophelia is now seeking justice and wants her money returned.
