“Ghana Extradites ‘Dada Joe Remix’ to U.S. Over Multimillion-Dollar Romance and Inheritance Scam”
The United States Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) has confirmed that its special agents at the U.S. Embassy in Accra partnered with Ghanaian authorities to facilitate the extradition of Joseph Kwadwo Badu Boateng, also known as “Dada Joe Remix,” to the United States.
In a statement posted on Facebook, the DSS announced:
“Diplomatic Security Service special agents at U.S. Embassy Ghana worked with Ghanaian authorities to assist the FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation – in the extradition of Joseph Badu Boateng aka Dada Joe Remix. Boateng was indicted on charges of running a fraud ring that used romance and inheritance schemes to defraud U.S. victims of several million dollars. The subject is now in the United States to face justice.”
Boateng was arrested in Ghana on May 28, 2025, following an extradition request by the U.S. government. The request was based on an unsealed indictment from a federal grand jury in Arizona. He faces charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Boateng allegedly led an international scam network from 2013 to 2023. The group reportedly targeted elderly and vulnerable individuals in the U.S. and other countries, deceiving them with false promises of inheritance or ownership of valuable assets like gold and jewels. Victims were persuaded to send large sums of money under the guise of paying taxes or fees to access the fake assets.
The indictment is part of a broader U.S. crackdown on transnational fraud rings, especially those exploiting older Americans through online deception and emotional manipulation.
Boateng’s extradition was carried out under existing U.S.-Ghana bilateral agreements, with both nations cooperating to ensure due legal process. If convicted in the U.S., Boateng could face a lengthy prison sentence under federal law.
Authorities emphasized that the charges against Boateng are currently allegations, and he remains presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
