A 22-year-old yahoo boy, 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.
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 said 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.
The mother of Princess during an interview with newsmen confirmed she was aware her daughter was going out with an internet fraudster.
According to the grieving mother, her daughter told her she posed as a white lady who spoke to Kwabena Osei’s clients on his behalf.
The mother continued that she asked her now deceased daughter if she was getting paid for assisting Kwabena Osei in the fraud activities to which she wasn’t able to reply in the affirmative YES or NO.
A night before the unfortunate incident, her daughter told her she was going to Kwabena Osei’s place.
She warned her not to go but she sneaked out of the house and unfortunately met her untimely death.
