Rasmus Frimpong, who claimed to be a policeman with the Property Fraud Unit, of the Accra Regional Police Command, is in the custody of the police assisting in investigations.

The Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Command, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Effia Tenge disclosed this to the Ghanaian Times in Accra, yesterday, stating that victims were mostly graduates.
She said on April 17, a complainant in the case from Koforidua in the Eastern Region reported to the police that Frimpong collected GH¢1,800 from her to secure her job in the police service but failed to do so.
The PRO said, the police had information about his activities and arrested the suspect at Adentan on May 1, adding that during interrogation he gave a wrong service number and indicated that he was with the Property Unit of the Accra regional command.
DSP Tenge said further investigations revealed the police items on him.

“Five more people have also reported similar cases against Frimpong to the police,” she added.
She said the case was under investigations, adding that he would soon be arraigned for fraud.
DSP Tenge appealed to the public and victims of such scams to report to the police.
She cautioned the public to be wary of such people in the society, stating that the police do not employ the services of middlemen to do recruitment for them.
DSP Tenge said such police recruitments were done through the national dailies and on the police webs.
