The U.S. Embassy in Ghana has announced the successful extradition of Joseph Badu Boateng, also known as "Dada Joe Remix," to the United States to face fraud charges.
In a Facebook post, the Embassy revealed that its Diplomatic Security Service special agents worked with Ghanaian authorities to assist the FBI in the operation.
Mr Boateng was indicted for allegedly running a fraud ring that used romance and inheritance schemes to defraud American victims of several million dollars.
The suspect is now in the United States where he will face justice.
