A motor rider has allegedly been swindled out of GH¢100 by a man who hired his services, only to disappear after leaving behind a sack containing sand and torn slippers.

According to reports, the unidentified man approached the rider and hired his services. During the trip, he reportedly handed the rider GH¢100, claiming he needed to collect something from another person.

To ensure the rider did not suspect anything, the man allegedly left a sack he was carrying on the motorbike, suggesting he would return shortly.

However, after the man failed to return, the rider reportedly became suspicious and decided to inspect the sack.

To his surprise, the sack contained nothing of value but sand and torn slippers, leaving him with the realisation that he had allegedly been tricked out of GH¢100.
