US Embassy Alerts to Fraud

The U.S. Embassy in Accra has recently learned that an individual is claiming to represent the Consular Section of the U.S. Embassy. This person pretends to be purchasing goods on behalf of the Consular Section but disappears before making payment.

The Consular Section does not employ this individual, and employees of the Consular Section do not negotiate directly with businesses for goods and services. The Consular Section takes fraud seriously and wishes to protect the Ghanaian public from individuals or groups claiming to represent the U.S. Embassy.

Please report any instances of fraud or malfeasance to the Consular Section via e-mail at consulateaccra@state.gov.
