Hajia 4Reall To Be Released On $500,000 Bond With GPS Tracking Ankle Monitor
In a new development to the trending Hajia 4Reall report, the Ghanaian socialite, influencer and occasional musician is scheduled to be released on home detention but will wear a GPS ankle monitor since she is being investigated in the US for a romance scam.
Tru News Report earlier reported that Hajia is to be extradited from the UK to the US for allegedly committing a despicable lonely hearts scam in which she defrauded elderly, single Americans out of $2 million.
According to the United States Attorney’s Office, she is being investigated for her involvement in several romantic fraud schemes as well as for laundering the money from those frauds. If found guilty of the accusations, which include wire fraud, money laundering, receiving stolen property, and conspiracy, Hajia 4Reall could spend up to 20 years in jail.
According to the New York Post, she pleaded not guilty to all the charges during her first court appearances in the US.
The report further cited Hajia 4Reall’s lawyer as saying she was set to be “released on home detention to her aunt’s New Jersey residence in the coming days on $500,000 bond, with GPS tracking via an ankle monitor.”
Hajia 4Reall’s lawyer, Adam Cortez, also disclosed that there were six alleged victims involved in the case.
“At this time all we know is that there are six alleged victims and only two dealt with a woman and only one of them claims that he dealt with Ms. Montrage,” he said.
Meanwhile, a statement from the US Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York said she allegedly scammed one of her victims with a fake marriage.
She is alleged to have sent the victim a tribal marriage certificate purporting to show that they were married in Ghana and took $89,000 from her victim.
“As to one victim, MONTRAGE used her real name and spoke to the victim several times by phone. MONTRAGE sent the victim a tribal marriage certificate purporting to show that MONTRAGE and the victim had been married in Ghana,” the US Attorney’s Office said on its website.
“The victim sent MONTRAGE approximately 82 wire transfers totaling approximately $89,000 to purportedly help with costs associated with MONTRAGE’s father’s farm in Ghana.
“In total, MONTRAGE controlled bank accounts that received over $2 million in fraudulent funds from the Enterprise.”
