Scams to watch for in Ghana
- Inflated taxi quotesDrivers often quote foreigners well above the local fare. In Accra, opening quotes can be three times the usual price or more. A driver may also assume you want to hire the whole taxi rather than share it. Most taxis have no meter, so agreeing on the price matters.
- Credit card fraudCredit card fraud is described as very common. The exact ways cards or card details are misused are not specified.
- Targeted extortionPeople suspected to be gay or queer can face targeting and demands for money. The exact threats, methods and people responsible are not specified.
