Two Ghanaian twin brothers and a 53-year-old American woman plead guilty to conspiring to defraud people through romance scams worth more than $9 million. The cases involve luring older victims into romantic relationships before persuading them to transfer large sums of money.
The reports say the scam targeted elderly people across the United States and Europe. One outlet describes the defendants as twin brothers from Ghana, identified as Jamal Abubakari and Kamal Abubakari, along with their co-defendant, Amanda Joy Opoku-Boachie. Another outlet focuses on the guilty pleas themselves and the scale of the alleged scheme.
While the overall account is consistent, the coverage differs slightly in emphasis: some stories foreground the plea outcome, while others highlight the potential prison exposure described for the defendants. Across all sources provided, the core facts—guilty pleas, romance-scam mechanism, and the $9 million-plus figure—match.
