Our company got an enquiry from Ghana and we are wondering if its fake or not.
Hi there,
Recently our company received an enquiry from a "Trade Agent" who is working in Ghana. His name is Marcus Dami and his e-mail is marcusdami11@yahoo.com. He says he is working with buyer which is :
Contract Procurement Office
West African Contract Economic Procurement Council Ghana (WACEPC)
Plot No. 02. Off George Walker Bush Highway North. Accra-Ghana
Email: tender@waepcg-int.com
Tel: +233264479041
And he takes 2% for the whole shipment. Now we are very coutios about conducting business with African countries especially due tot he fact that we are manufacturers of baked goods. This particular request was for our Biscuit Cookies in quit large amounts (<20 Tons).
We would kindly ask if you could provide any information on this agent or buyer listed above is it fake or legit??
Thank you in Advance

Arsenij,
A simple Google search on the contact phone number will confirm that it's a scam;

The victim receive one email from Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning from Ghana, using the email address info.mofa.govs@gmail.com and the phone number +233264479041 - a formal intention to buy some products. One contract was needed - and the Ghanian part told the victim he need a lawyer to represent him at the signing of the contract. After the contract was signed, the lawyer, using the mobile phone +233545628156, told the victim he need to pay Ghana tax for total of USD19500, claiming that, without paying this tax, the money for the products can not be transfered.
