FBI Disrupts Major Scam Centers in Ghana, 130+ Detained and 300+ Devices Seized

The FBI announced a disruption of scam compounds in Ghana as part of Operation Blackout, with over 130 people arrested or detained, more than 300 devices seized, and approximately $10 million in identified losses tied to the Ghana action; broader operation figures cited include $17 billion in seized assets and thousands of victims assisted. The public statement omitted technical details (malware, domains, crypto addresses, forensic findings) and did not separate detained victims from alleged perpetrators, limiting technical attribution.
