MONROVIA — The Liberia National Police (LNP) has charged three individuals accused of defrauding a local businesswoman of US$1,500 under the guise of facilitating a travel opportunity to Canada. The suspectsDaniel T. Saah, Darius Biah, and Massiamy Fofana, were on Monday, October 21, 2025, forwarded to the Monrovia City Court to face charges of Criminal Conspiracy, Criminal Facilitation, and Theft of Property, in violation of Sections 10.4 and 15.51 of the Revised Penal Law of Liberia.
Police say the trio, all reportedly employees of QNET/Infinity Millennial Liberia, were arrested following a complaint filed by Madam Hawa P. Saah, a businesswoman based in Monrovia, who claimed she was duped into paying the amount for what she believed was a legitimate travel arrangement.
The Deception
According to police investigators, the alleged scam occurred in June 2025 at LPRC Community, Gardnersville, when the suspects, posing as facilitators of a Canadian travel program, persuaded Madam Saah to pay for her supposed enrollment.
The victim told police that she had first been contacted by a woman identified only as Cecelia, who presented the offer as a genuine opportunity to secure travel to Canada. Acting on the promise, Madam Saah said she journeyed from Lofa County to Monrovia, where she met the three defendants, Saah, Biah, and Fofana, who introduced themselves as the program’s representatives.
They reportedly demanded US$1,500, which she paid in full, and she received an official-looking receipt issued under the name Infinity Millennial Liberia. Shortly afterward, she attended what was described as an “orientation,” only to discover the program was linked to QNET, a controversial network marketing operation with no travel affiliation.
Realizing she had been deceived, Madam Saah informed her former boyfriend, who subsequently reported the matter to the police.
Suspects’ Statements
During interrogation, Defendant Daniel T. Saah allegedly admitted receiving US$495 from the complainant as part of what he described as a “QNET business fee,” claiming the remainder was handled by other staff.
Defendant Darius Biah, 29, a native of Gharlay Town, Maryland County, acknowledged his employment with QNET but denied collecting any money from Madam Saah.
Defendant Massiamy Fofana also confirmed her association with QNET but denied having direct contact or any financial dealings with the victim.
Police Findings and Legal Action
The investigation, led by Inspector John D. Kumah, concluded that the defendants conspired to defraud the complainant through false representation. Police recovered US$700 and the original receipt issued to the victim, which were entered as evidence.
Investigators determined that the trio deliberately misled Madam Saah by pretending to facilitate a visa and travel process, only to divert her into QNET’s marketing activities.
Following the findings, the LNP charged the three suspects and remanded them at the Monrovia Central Prison pending court trial.
Meanwhile, police say a fourth suspect, Cecelia, who initially lured the victim into the scheme, remains at large and has been charged in absentia for her alleged role in the fraud.
Authorities have cautioned the public to remain vigilant against travel-related scams and to verify the legitimacy of organizations offering overseas opportunities.
