Ghanaian actress and brand influencer Priscilla Opoku Agyeman, popularly known as Ahuofe Patri, has shared her shocking experience of being scammed while trying to order fried rice and chicken from the renowned restaurant Papaye.
In a video, the former Boys Kasa series star detailed how hunger struck during a film shoot, prompting her to order food. “The restaurant was close by, but I didn’t want to risk leaving the set and disrupting the schedule, so I decided to order for delivery instead,” she recounted.
She searched online for Papaye’s contact and was soon connected with someone claiming to represent the restaurant. “They asked me to make payment before delivery, and even though I was hesitant, I decided to go ahead,” Ahuofe explained.
After sending the payment, she received a code via SMS with instructions not to share it with anyone. However, she soon received another call demanding the code. “I told them I wasn’t comfortable giving out the code, but they insisted it was necessary to complete the transaction,” she narrated.
Reluctantly, Ahuofe provided the code, only to realize moments later that she had fallen victim to scammers. “I received multiple messages authorizing a withdrawal of 300 cedis from my account. I quickly canceled the transaction,” she said.
Determined to get her meal, Ahuofe drove to the restaurant and purchased the food herself. However, she was stunned by the response she received when she raised her concerns.
“I told the staff what had happened, and they informed me that other customers had also been scammed. But what shocked me the most was their indifference.
They didn’t involve a manager or show any urgency to address the issue,” she lamented.
