The term ‘sakawa’ as it is often coined refers to fraud boys who sit behind their mini computers demanding money from online and offline users through inappropriate means to enrich themselves
Recently, police caught a gang of fraudsters who planned to remit about GHC 326 million to themselves.
Despite their louche business, ‘sakawa’ or fraud boys, are not known to be quiet in communities.
They are often showy, loud and quite expensive in their tastes.

3. Nissan Sonata The Nissan Sonata is also one of the favourites of the Sakawa crew. It is usually the case that those of them who feel that they are too easily identified with the Toyota models, tend to opt for the Sonata.
So now, the Fraud boys have moved to Sonata. Ah!
