Ghanaian socialite Mona Faiz Montrage popularly known as Hajia4Reall has been extradited from the United Kingdom to the United States over her involvement in a $2 million love scam.
The s3xy socialite was extradited to the US after she was found to be one of the brains behind swindling over $2 million from older, single American men and women in a twisted lonely hearts scam.
US prosecutors said Hajia4real appeared in Manhattan federal court on Monday, May 15, for her alleged involvement in a series of romance schemes targeting older people who lived alone.
“As alleged, Mona Faiz Montrage was a member of a criminal conspiracy that specifically targeted older Americans through romance scams,” Manhattan US Attorney Damian Williams said in a statement. “These scams can be both financially and emotionally devastating for vulnerable victims.”
