It was reported some few weeks back that a fake US Embassy has been operating in the Accra for more than a decade now.

It was also reported that the embassy was being run by some Ghanaian and Turkish organised crime rings.
The owners of the house in which the fake U.S embassy operated have come out to say the news is false.
The owners of the property, the Lamptey family, have flatly denied that the house was ever used for such nefarious activities.
They have asked the US government to provide proof or face legal action.
Asked about this complaint, a spokesperson for the US Embassy in Accra said they cannot speculate what has occurred at that building after the initial raid and that the photo used in the online article is the building the criminal enterprise used to conduct their fraud operations.
We are yet to find out if there was an actual fake embassy or if this is another cooked story to tarnish our image as a country just as CNN did.
