Note that this is a recovery scam, targeting a victim who has already paid. The scammers are now posing as the authorities, claiming that the original scammers (really the same people) have been arrested, and that they are going to get her money back to her.

Some of the messages from these scammers:

The lawyer sends the victim to the fake bank, pretending that they have money confiscated from the scammers (really themselves, they are just trying to get more money) that the bank will get the money to her (note the hotmail address, which a real bank would never have.)

This is from the fake bank manager, who is supposedly going to transfer the money to the victim (for a fee, of course):

Hello Madam, it has come to our notice you have a
money with the Ghana police and they would like you to use our bank
for the transfer since western union and money gram does not allow to
send money from here.its going to take a week for your transaction to
get through.Find attached a copy of the information's you will need to
go for the money at any bank near you.we will later give you a call
when we send the money.They told me its $14,400 they will have to send
to you and the charges for this money is $550.thank you very much and
dont hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any problem.Thank
you very much.
Yours Faithfully,
Branch Manager,
Mr.Daniel Amarter.


His phony bank document:

The address to send the "fee"

this is the information where you can send the money
Name:Joel Ayim Aruna
Question:Favorite musician
Answer: kirk franklin
i will be expecting the mtcn tomorrow and i will send youy the
tracking number saturday morning then you can go for your money on
monday...Thank you


He has been told that his victim is in the hospital, and instead of backing off, the scammer is continuing the scam with a family member:
Ok madam.She has a transfer of $14,400 to receive on Monday and we did
the transfer for her yesterday and i will be sending her the slip
tomorrow morning through FedEx overnight so she could go for the
money.She was suppose to pay the transfer charges today.i sent her the
info where she should send the money too.please make sure she will
send the money today so i will know if i will send the slip tomorrow
or not..She told me she is not working and need to catch up with her
bills that was why her lawyer and the inspector arrested all those who
have scammed her for her money.
If not you will have to send me your
name and postal address where i could then send the slip to you since
she is in the hospital you will have to also add your email where i
could send you the tracking number after i go and send it.i guess
since she is not working she will need money for her hospital
bills.you could by any way also get the money from her and go and send
it for her.The money has been in Ghana for long and we are helping her
to get her money back.
she knows they dont send money through western
union or money gram in ghana because of the scammers here.so our bank
is helping her to transfere the money to her.so please i will send you
the info where you could go and send the money this evening.and
remember to send me you name and address where i could send the
payment slip to you for her collection of the money.thank you

The "lawyer" also steps in to reiterate:

A month after that exchange, in which more money was lost, the scammers are still at it, and it appears they have once again succeeded in convincing the victim to send money.

Hi madam.it

will be tomorrow when we will send you the slip.i will
send you the fedex tracking tomorow morning


Of course it is important to realize that THERE IS NO MONEY. The scammer will keep demanding more and more money, but the VICTIM WILL RECEIVE NOTHING. The only money that will ever change hands is the victims, when the scammers steal as much of it as they possibly can.
