World reacts as Mona Faiz Montrage (Mona 4Reall) gets extradited from the United Kingdom to the U.S. for stealing over $2 million from older and single Americans in a twisted lonely hearts scam

Social Media influencer Mona Faiz Montrage (Mona 4Reall) has been extradited from the United Kingdom to the U.S. for allegedly stealing over $2 million from older and single Americans in a twisted lonely hearts scam

Montrage — who had around 3.4 million Instagram followers of her page Hajia4Reall at one point — from at least 2013 through 2019 was involved with a group of con artists from West Africa who assumed fake identities to trick people into thinking they were in relationships with them using emails, texts and social media messages, the feds said.

The scammers would then get the victims to transfer money to them under false pretenses — such as to help move gold to the US from overseas, to resolve bogus FBI investigations and payments to help fake US Army officers in Afghanistan, court papers allege.

Montrage, in one case, allegedly duped a victim into sending her $89,000 through 82 wire transfers on the pretext of helping her father’s farm in Ghana, the court documents claim.
