In response to the growing threat of cybercrime in Ghana, The Ghana Fintech and Payments Association, in collaboration with Cyber Bells Foundation, FinTech Management Solutions, and Village Minds Production, proudly presents Cyber Heist - a groundbreaking theatrical production that is as entertaining as it is enlightening.
Set to take the stage at the National Theatre in Accra on Friday, 2nd May 2025 at 6:00 PM, CYBER HEIST is a unique fusion of comedy, drama, and real-life scenarios that tackle the dark world of digital fraud, online scams, and cybersecurity threats. With increasing reports of cyberattacks targeting individuals and businesses alike, this production comes at a crucial time.
Cybercrime in Ghana has reached alarming levels. In 2023 alone, Ghanaians lost over GHS 59.9 million, with 35% of cases linked to online fraud.
By April 2024, reported losses had already hit GHS 10.7 million, with investment scams alone skyrocketing from GHS 421,621 in 2023 to more than GHS 1.9 million in 2024.
Scammers continue to evolve, deploying fake investment websites, phishing schemes, and deceptive social media tactics to exploit unsuspecting victims.
CYBER HEIST confronts these threats head-on, offering audiences:
• Insight into how common scams operate, including phishing, insider threats, and fake investment schemes
• Education on practical cybersecurity measures to safeguard digital identities and financial information
• Empowerment to take proactive steps in the fight against cybercrime
The play’s powerful message is delivered through laughter, drama, and reflection, making cybersecurity awareness both accessible and engaging for audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
