Member of Parliament (MP) for the Klottey Korle Constituency, Dr. Zanetor Agyeman Rawlings has cautioned the general public against engaging “some unscrupulous persons creating fake social media accounts” in her name to extort money.

According to Miss Agyeman Rawlings, who is also the daughter of the late former president Jerry John Rawlings, the impersonators are appealing for donations towards the funeral arrangements of her late father.

In a statement, the legislator said, “the modus operandi of these criminals is to first engage the attention of unsuspecting people who genuinely wish to express their condolence to the MP, then they proceed to solicit for donations for the funeral arrangements”.

She, therefore, urged the general public “to be on the lookout for and report to the police anybody who engages them on social media purporting to be Dr. Zanetor Agyeman Rawlings or her representative”.
